Everyone has an addiction.

What's the root of it?

Confliction,

perhaps,

thoughts that are fiction,

or wanting to fit in,

unwilling to listen?

Smoking,

gambling,

drugs,

cutting,

loving,

pain,

sports.

We're all addicted in some sorts.

Get rid of one

and you'll find another.

You say you won't?

What a bluffer.

You're just going to suffer.

Addiction,

we all need to get our fix in.

There's a certain pulchritude to it,

even though it sounds like bullshit.

We're so alone

that our addiction makes us feel at home.

It's something that keeps us grounded,

as we find ourselves astounded

by something that means nothing,

yet means everything.

Think I'm making this up?

Find your addiction

and go without it

and you'll feel the sting

that being alone will bring.

We all have an addiction.

What's the root of it?
