The Beast

The Beast

I don't believe it starts as an end goal yet seems to keep being achieved ... for too many have succumbed for a high growing up in their teens,

they hide it so well their secret.. behind closed doors in small groups they believe... they think they can kick it or won't need it once they figure out their ready to succeed,

Yet this beast that there feeding inside them is planning its next attack ..too what tricks it can play on its next victims So it can feast on its fix not giving there life back,

their life is no longer in charge their life no longer has the control that mild mannered man with a smile is now battered and beaten so low,

for the beast claimed another victim for the beast was let loose on a life ..for this beast has no competition as the beast has one goal in its mind,

its reads just like pure fiction this story about ruining a life ... but the truth I know of addiction No matter how hard No matter the fight ... it never destroys just one life.

Great write on addiction. And very true. For an addict only the next fix matters, oblivious to the lives he destroys.
