This Addiction
One Kira Noir,
With some Riley Reid,
I know they're not real,
But they're real to me
Indulged in the vice,
Since the age of twelve,
Preacher preached sermon,
"You're going to hell"
Enticing allure,
Calling quietly,
"A little bit more,
Last time you'll see"
What is all of hope,
Trapped in misery,
Read the rest of the poem Show less
Washed with bloody cloth,
Rinsed in secrecy
Natural or not,
It feels like prison,
Nothing free about,
This indecision
No moral question,
More of discipline,
Chronic offender,
Struggling within
Pardoned affliction,
disguised as self-care,
Sermon remembered,
"I'm already there"
These shackles remain,
Shame then self-deceit,
The only release,
To rinse and repeat.

"Detachment wasn't the right title for this. In the moment is much more suitable. I feel that you spent your time meditating wisely, excellent job! ~ Geezer. ." -

on Words for a Queen from @weirdelf
"If that happens when composing try pressing Shift-Enter, instead of just Enter. It won't start a new paragraph and will make the lines space normally. Otherwise I think the archaic language detracts. As Ian implied, by…" -
