Addict

 

Lay it aside,

walk away at an accelerated pace,

the voices in your head will dissipate

the further you get from this place.

 

Learn to feel again,

remember…before you were an addict,

before guilt disguised itself as pain,

and denial became your anesthetic?

 

Don’t worry,

you’ve taken away it’s crown,

don’t give your burden legs –

it can’t move once you’ve laid it down.
