The rush
Tina, what’s up gurl it’s been a few weeks, this is where my cravings seem to be at their peaks. No longer yearn smoke, or snort it into vape. Now all I yearn most is the worlds greatest escape.

My Heart and Mind had a discussion one dayAbout a man that they both knew quite well. The heated discussion continued for hours,Both with arguments meant to compel.

The storm. Take a Xanax and enjoy some T
Today was the day I felt it was best. To jump back on a flight before my body is put to rest. New Year’s Day was probably The turning point, from how a guy made me feel, I fell straight to disappoint.

14th West Ave, or the bathhouse ?
The story begins when I was 30 days clean, The road I chose, the grass certainly wasn’t green. I liked you a lot, tho I came across way to keen. But Tina, she claimes she’s the mother fuckin queen.

Letters to Mom & Dad #1
I remember your reaction as clear as the crystal I used. It wasn’t until my visit home I realised what I had abused. The Love of my family, you found it hard to get to grips, With the problem I had, you didn’t want me to end up on drips.

Rock bottom hurt, I didn’t die tho.
Oh if I could go back to being 22, Jump in a time machine and change this shitty avenue. Growing up I thought this would be easy, I thought id be famous so easy fuckin peasy.

Being a badass can also include passion.
To slap you is to touch you, Shout for mercy but beg me for more. To Bite you is to kiss you, Tied and tethered on the floor.

Battery acid, is that a vitamin?
So I’ve explained how it can be, and some of the damage it’s done to me. I know the science behind my poison, I chose ice but its not frozen. The hardest thing to let go, this was the path that was once chosen.

Left in fate.
It’s no secret I struggle with with addiction. I take pride in being open and write it with such conviction. I’d been craving to shoot ever since I got back, it only took me afew days to think Fuck it, it’s that self control I lack.

Temptation over connection?
It’s too early to decide, What this connection probably implies. I just Wanna feel your body, That mischievous smile that makes my senses shoddy

Daniel Day.
We met on an app almost 5 years ago What we’d end up feeling for each other we weren’t to know. The first time we spoke we spent 2 hours on the phone, I was living with my ex but I was soon to be moving home.

How far will you go?
So here I am thinking I could be free, Free from the agony you contain in me. This feeling alone I never thought I could be,
