Addiction

I hate you. You are mind altering and infuriating, deceitful and cruel. You are selfish and loathsome. You make me foolish and usurp the logic from my actions. You don't care who you effect or harm and you drive me insane. I can't clean you from my skin and though I scrub I still feel you weight pressing down, down through to my core. I know all this and yet I lie. Demand the bits I dream are good and pretend our dance heals all wounds. You have many mistresses and many names but only one that gives you strength. My Addiction.
