When addiction takes over

[resiN-]

Tell me what you think i wrote this up real quick about my addiction to oxycontin and H
If anyone has any other raps or poems or anything about their addictions or drug use or whatever u wanna call it
i'd love to hear em

It hits me as i blow out the smoke
right away my eyes fade closed
as i lay stoned
this addiction effects my everyday life
its like im stabbing myself
with a double edged knife
everyone says "come on take a hit"
but when i buy it
i smoke every bit
i suddenly dont know
what my life has come to
once a happy guy
now im always blue
my emotions go from high to low
brain cells are dying
now starting to feel slow
everyone else is doing it
so it should be fine
now we lie
and we aren't so kind
This addiction is taking over
and it isnt alright
and now ive learnd
its a constant fight
But for now i stay high
and here i lie
im afraid this drug will stay with me
till the day I die..

I love it. I share similar sentiments as the ones you just expressed as I'm trying to quit oxy at the moment. It sucks, I hate not being high because that's the reality I'm used to.

Just remember that as humans we are ridiculously able to adapt to new circumstances. That's what I'm trying to remember; once I overcome this short-term inconvenience while my body and brain readjust to "normal" life without opiates, I'll be a much, much happier person. It's hard to see that when you are so overtaken by cravings and dopesickness (I'm doing a quick suboxone taper right now, so the worst is yet to come for me)

Hang in there man, I know what you're going through and it's hell. I've been going through it for a couple years now. Hit me up if you ever wanna vent or anything. I think I might try and write a poem-y type thing about addiction too. Maybe it'll help release some of those built up emotions we addicts don't get the pleasure of experiencing because we're too busy nodding out all the time. 8)
