It was a narcotic
Fate sold it, I bought it
For three short months it was in my system
It fueled my blood, gave me drive and ambition
But then before I could adjust to transition
I had to give it up, of my own volition
I'm almost wishin' I had listened to the voice in my head
Tellin' me, "No, Ronnie, no; take the safe road instead"
'Cause the withdrawal that I'm going through
God, I wish you only knew
I can't breathe, I can't think, I can't sleep at night
Incomplete, out of sync, I feel like nothing's right
I held on so tight for the first time in my life
The future was so bright; I thought I'd make it out all right
Euphoric before it tore me down
This drug that I'm cravin' turned my life around
So give me a hit, come on, shoot me up
I just need a fix, needle, line, or a cup
I need it in my veins, I need it in my life
This kinda pain don't go away
And certainly not tonight
Author notes
Written I guess around the middle of September? Early September? I don't know. Jordan and I sometimes communicate in rap (sounds dumb, I know, but it's his thing and I go with it, it's actually kinda cute), and I wrote this to let him know how I felt about our relationship ending abruptly after I went to college. He broke up with his girlfriend two days later and we began dating again. ^^
The title wasn't pre-existing, I just had to name it for the site. The title makes it sound way cooler than it actually is, lol.

Erm.....
Anyways, I enjoy it, and totally understand the feelings. The flow felt a little forced on the longer lines, but overall it really brought everything to the forefront. Good job with the poem!

Yeah. A lot of the flow is the way you say it when it's read aloud, and I can't expect anyone to just hear how I say it, but my flow is sucky.
It's something I'm trying to work on. Thankssx
: D
[[Also, lol @ first line of your comment. : P ]]

If you don't have something actually comment-like to say (ie something more substantial than your arrogant "Erm..."), then get the FUCK off my site and save your snobby, pretentious bullshit for someone who cares.

Erm...
