Craving the satisfaction
It's an addiction they say
Temporary happiness--
Sacrificing the future
is the price you pay
Where is your dignity?
Your long-term goals
go down the drain
As you choose
to give your time
and relieve the pain.

Addiction to drugs as well as other things is a temporary gratification for a payment in life and all future. Nicely written
Am I to decide precisely what you gave your time to? Or is that the point?
🥷, this is raw and unflinching. It doesn’t moralize from a distance, it speaks from inside the struggle. That honesty gives it weight. Powerful write, my dear friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Lots of stuff goes down the drain. Its a good metaphore. This poem was really well written Ninjagirl. Keep up the good work.
