Carelessly Addicted

Carelessly Addicted

A Poem by Zachary Craig

I fall too easily for the newly fallen
The fallen that had fell the same way I have
Drifting through the streets of life,
lost without any hope of finding their way home.

I can relate to you, my dear
I can see how life must be uneasy
Hard is nothing that can become easier
But, easy can become harder

We were all happy at one time
That is why we have fallen,
dropped down to the darkest depths
waiting for our light to shine

I can't say when the light will shine upon us,
I can only say that it will.
These ciggarettes  and alcohol won't save us for long
so let's try to see what the new day brings

I can't promise that I won't fall back down, leaving you alone
But I can promise that you will continue if I do
Self reliance is the only thing you need right now, it is crucial
So my final advice to you, my friend, is...

Don't fall too easily for the newly fallen

I like way it ties together at the end.
I also really liked the lines;
"I can't say when the light will shine upon us,
I can only say that it will.
These ciggarettes and alcohol won't save us for long
so let's try to see what the new day brings"

Great stuff. :)

"Hard is nothing that can become easier

I absolutely love those two lines. This piece is so... true.

"These cigarettes and alcohol won't save us for long
so let's try to see what the new day brings"
These two lines are also amazing. Overall, great read.
