Temptation
Did you see the pain in my eyes?
creeping inside of me
becoming
falling
away from me it goes...
Did you see that I was strong?
in every single tear that slipped
overpowering
strengthening
enough to be weak...
Did you see my last resort?
cut away from me
dieing
screaming
yet still no release...
Did you see my body is tainted?
a constant reminder
faded
jaded
the addiction isn't free...

A stunning piece of poetry. Beautifully penned. The pain is there, and you let it spill out in your graceful words.
