Written ten days before the overdose

An addict. To use is to die. Isn't it ironic that we pay someone to supply us with the very thing that could end our life? And in a manner of speaking, an addict's life does end while he is using.

Paralyzed with anxiety and it's hard to breathe. An almost overwhelming sadness. If it were not for the thread I hold on by...

Beginnings of a realization of just how awry my life has gone. From that first detour when all was pushed aside for an addiction I was never meant to meet.

Have you forgotten how deeply I feel? The intensity of which is all but surreal. Your happenstance words that shred my ever dwindling self-esteem. I lie in bed shell-shocked from my dreams.

Imagine your feelings magnified to the ten thousandth power and you might find yourself without the power. I'm a fool, such a fool. I long for some small evidence of your admiration only that never comes. And just like alway's and before; I run.
