Addictions

 

 

Addictions to chocolate

Trying to calm the nerves

The emptying of pockets

This little pleasure serves

 

A bag of chips with salt

And the zestiness of vinegar

My composure it exalts

The thoughts of insecure

 

A connoisseur of IPA

Diluting any tension

Euphorically you sway

Away from dissension

 

The journey of my quill

My playground expressed through verse

Thoughts I have are surreal

The triggers I try to reverse

 

Defining splattered pigment

An odyssey of the mind

Offers much contentment

As colors are combined

 

Taste of a gentle kiss

Or your scent in which I breathe

My mind is filled with bliss

As your essence myself I wreathe

 

Inspired by the moment

Focused or distracted

A therapeutic component

Where answers are extracted

 

Prescribed reality

A calculated intention

To sooth my mentality

Of the undesired addictions
