The BEAST
It has a name
It has a meaning
Just words I thought
No understanding
no empathy
No clue why addiction takes hold of every ounce of self control and self respect
Isolating the living sole which usually has control
You give so much to feed this hungry beast called ADDICTION
Sucking the life out of the human form
I watch you drift off Into oblivion
A world apart from the one your on
You hide away
Your body looking Tired
Too frightened to ask where your going
To tired to panic but too anxious not to care
I love you too much not to care
You get cross with me and don't remember why
I ask more questions and still it doesn't settle my worried mind
You pick up the beast and breath him in
You stand
Your eyes all dazed
Your the opposite of the one I love
The man I hold dear
The man who's my hero
I still see the beast
He's lurking waiting to leap at me
If I let him....
Ive been tempted to take hold of the beast and breath him in
I can't lie I have....
He looks at you and pulls you closer
I try to hold you tight
So tight to hold us all together
A unit
A binding love ❤️
I want to control and kick this beast away
He has my love
My man
My best friend
My sole mate
I want him back.... He's mine not yours
