beautiful verses and yet the thruthness has never been told as this......drugs create hallucination and fake dreams...........eating your flesh slow and steady.

Wow...powerful analysis going on here - thought this stanza was especially good: 'Lost in the torments of creative restlessness, And the vagrancies of vanity, Are the misgivings of addiction.' You have a style that is all your own and what bleeds from the page here is an open, honest expression of addiction 'upon an afflicted soul'. Your introspection is thought-provoking, memorable and original. j xx

Addiction, As it continues its course, Is the near detachment of my soul....i like this new definition of addiction. The theme is a real challenge. Bravo to you.

'Bleeding mind, ' 'overanalysed dreams' are strong images that offer a glimpse in the world of addicts. A simple and strong poem.
