    Addiction
    Clawing, tearing, ripping
    from the depths of my soul
    Deadly desire grips my heart
    as I faintly fight for control
    Lovely, blinding numbness
    I desperately grasp for
    Beautiful distraction floods my mind
    refusing to allow me to focus
    Torn between craving and sobriety
    I keep slipping closer to the edge
    Begging for final release
    I repeat the cycle yet again

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
