Working her way through the pain
Just to fall back into it
Craving it unmercifully
Uncaring for her self in her need for it
Her need to feel again
Others don’t understand this driving
Obsession
They ask why she can’t just quit
Like it’s so easy
She tried once before
Still remembers how it feels
The feeling of molten glass
Flowing up her veins
Of her heart busting inside
Over ragged desperate breathes
She will never try to quit again
She falls into oblivion
Giving up her claim to life
She will just take things as they come
No need to fight no more
She finally is
Overcome

Thank you for the fresh entry. It was really intense and dramatic. I didn't really care for the background, but the poem was great. Thanks again and good luck.
