FUCK
last twenty bucks
up in smoke
what a joke
needed a toke
from an addiction
she abhors, see the
euphoria she adores
just a little more
dope, her own way to cope
to find and lose hope
where her mind can elope
to a place that's not haunted
nor tormentented and taunted
with memories unwanted
of an affair that he flaunted
yes, she let's her mind run
as to not come undone
or admit that he won
and the game wasn't fun
Final Score from above:
Him- love
Her- none...

I love the beat to your words!!!!
They thundered off my tongue
you dear are a fine poet!

I love this one

I love the rhyme too. But maybe I'm biased....
because I love rhyme. Nah, I'm not biased,
this is a good write with a good point,
conveying emotion on a real level, & it happens
to rhyme well.
Thanks for sharing 
P.S. A gram should be less than twenty bucks.
That's like Starbucks charging $20 for for a Caramel
Machiatto.

See that? I get a comment from you not bitching about the rhyme and the comment before yours bitches about the rhyme. A bit ironic, lol.

I do not like the constant rhyme. I don't think rhyme relays the emotion well enough, and I found it distracting. I, though, am no fan of rhyme in the first place, so that is my oppinon, and perhaps prejudice. However, I enjoyed th last line, and I think it really summed up the poem very well.
-
I rather liked it. The first word certainly caught my attention. It's rather brutal and straightforward, and it works.
-
loved it . amazing piece
-
Love it. Hate it. Lived it.
And it's not easy to walk away from. There were nearly ten years that my addiction cushioned me from real life but I've been clean for over a month and am finally getting past it.
Nicely captured.
