Nothing is as it Seems; An Addiction Story

Nothing is as it Seems; An Addiction Story

A Poem by Cjb

The walls are closing in
The roof is crashing down
Noone notices, it doesnt even make a sound
With every lost cry for help
Screams turn into whimpers
The cries of the tortured souls
Agony
Distress
Self imollation
And for what
Selfishness
Arrogance
Pride
The warnings were given
Not to go down that path
And yet, ignorance got the best of them
Now they must feel the wrath
Even the self righteous fall
They wish it could be different
The writing on the wall
Spells it out in the eyes of the blind
They do not see
But they call out
Obsession
Fixation
Addiction
Nothing is as it seems.
