If Addiction a Pain
By James Goner
if addiction a pain, then depression another, said either decease or live and suffer. yet frightened of death like none other. now fix it the person who created the mess. was it ego or was it ignorance?
saw a way out, still hardships surround, yet it's the only path that the mind has found. tried and failed not once not twice, it was indeed, hundreds of times.
whenever gave up and asked, 'what is the point?', the mind said 'future is dark, but it could be bright.'
