one hundred-forty two.

former addiction.

i'm a recovering crack/cocaine addict.
anytime i see my former drug of choice
my skin irritates and i begin to itch.
we were intimate, me and that rock.
i got my dope for cheap, no price i couldn't afford.
i knew it was too good to be true.
i itch.
itchy skin.
veins rising.
i'm a recovering crack/cocaine addict.
still wondering how i got so hooked.
knowing i didn't want it i still fell for it.
and just like an unfaithful lover
it did me wrong and turned around
left me sitting
irritated and itching.
whenever i see my choice of drug,
i itch.
not because i'm craving it.
