Riding the white line
Oblivion's calling
Walkin' the wire
Don't notice you're falling

Floating on a cloud
heart beating too fast
Hanging off the moon
wanting the rush to last

Memories so real
feelings from old days
Looking in the mirror
thinking of old ways

God help me I want it
I feel it as a need
relentless in its intensity
expanding as I breath

Visions of razor blades
pipes and rolled dollar bills
A little taste of the demon
that takes its time to kill

Rocks, powder, Cocoa Puff
powerful dreams to dream
Wrestling with that time
trying not to scream

Waking up to snow
fallin' down with China White
Doing whatever it takes
to make it through the night

Dancin' with the Devil
it's a heavy price to pay
But lost within the high
it can wait for another day

Father Confessor
Mother Mary
I prayed for redemption
but it better hurry
It's wrapping me up
It's pulling me in
It's drawing me down
It's coming again

Addiction . . .

The poem:Well written, flows nicely, beautiful work.

If you are indeed addicted to cocaine, or any substance, I highly suggest doing whatever you have to do to quit. believe me, if you don't you will pay a very dear price...your relationships, job and/or school, and in many cases your life.
