Addiction

She gave me life—and ever for troubled, tunneling through life.     I never found her, spinning through nightmares, afraid of sobriety.     We hurt to see it, the heart we love, running through minefields: the near explosions, the bruised ego, and the caves that collapsed.     I lost ground, to watch addiction, to become secluded; and trekking nightmares, where ghosts speak, in wine and liquor.     It was us, as close as distance, inclined to silence; for love was pressure, and multiple persons, peaking for attention.     How for love—some version of such, sorting through dysfunction; but how to tell, according to standards, to reach the harmless?     It was midnight, where memories come forth, to seek a false escape; and to whom is watching—forever this grayness, and plus, the reprobate; oh for purgatory, or even limbo, and near the same: the burning ice, the fiery splinters, where the two alternate.     Its constant torture, to purge a soul, to ask for why?     She gave me life—and ever for troubled, tunneling through strife; where hell was smoke, a repeated cycle, to chase for yesteryears—and watch they pass, traipsing through decades, alone in the community.     To war for souls, as vacant as not here, fevered for Father; to hear the language, the mind of church, headed to rehab!     The days knew pain, plus a nervous laughter, to grieve for solace; and ever for conscious, to center in feelings, and fraught with emotions.     She gave me life, to lose for life, to die for life.     I watched the dying, disguised as living, to feel the pregnant madness; to flit in moments, as so much more, than mere addiction; to have a soul, to know for right, pulled by this force; where hell felt triggers, to usher actions, to archer destruction.     She lost her core; but what for this core—but an inner design?     It begs the statement: If it hurts—it’s wrong; so we float towards freedom, ostracizing addiction.
