    Addiction poem.

    I found this poem on another forum. Its so powerful I have just added it to the toolbox thread. Anyway I thought you might like to see it.

    I am addiction.
    I start in small subtle ways promising many things.
    I promise you enjoyment and pleasure beyond your wildest dreams.
    I deliver guilt and despair more horrible than your worst nightmare.
    I promise you power and courage.
    I give you feelings of powerlessness and hopelessness.
    I will force you to live in fear always.
    I promise you relief and escape from all your daily problems.
    I create for you greater problems than you ever have imagined.
    I promise comfort, I will give you pain.
    I promise happiness, I create much sorrow.
    I am addiction!
    I will steal from you; your self-dignity, your families, your friends,
    your children, your home, your dreams, your spirit, your life.
    For love, freedom and happiness are impossible to find in my presence.
    So never underestimate me, I am devious and manipulating.
    I have no preference as to who I pick as my victim;
    rich or poor, young or old, black or white, yellow or red.
    I have killed men, women and children.
    I have no conscience.
    So, if you have met me, Always Beware,
    for if you think you can beat me and I will be gone from your life
    and all will go well again, Never forget that I will always be there...
    waiting in the dark shadows, just around the corner.
    I am very patient.
    And I will laugh in your face if I can lure you into my evil world
    of hell on earth once again.
    I Am Addiction !!!
