"addies" poems
Its about one in the morning I know I have to get up at 7 I wish I was knocked out snoring I told myself I’d go to the gym at 11 I guess I can never keep a promise to myself There are so many things I should do But I just put **** off and keep it on a mental shelf Why can’t I ever follow through I told myself I’d tell you I liked you weeks ago But then I figured that you wouldn’t care You’re always with your friends for all I know If I told you I bet you’d just stare I told myself I’d get in shape this year But surprise I actually gained weight Being fat again is the worst thing I fear This week I’ve tracked all the calories I ate I told myself I’d try to stay in a relationship But two weeks in I freaked and ended it I got too annoyed kissing your lips I can’t pretend to be interested in this **** I told myself if other people are happy dating Then I could probably be happy too But I’m not comfortable with anything more than a fling Monogamy just isn’t something I can do I told myself I’d get my **** together this time Yet I’m snorting addies at a Philly party Then proceeding to cry about how I’m Such A Piece Of ****

Procrastination
One day at a time My Mom's the strongest At alcoholics annonimous One day at a time I count my pills Doctor hopping prevents the chills They keep her going Her AA peers Four months in, without a beer They keep me going Addies, I'm wide awake Kolonopin, come reduce my shakes So proud of you As I look in her eyes New innocence within her mind So proud of you Her oldest son Living lie, I am one Can't sit still, feelings overflowing I grab a pill, my cravings growing Trick all my doctors with false symptoms Just to control my nervous system They say life has ups and downs When I'm down, I pop some ups Pop the downs when my heart erupts My morals gone, I am corrupt One day at a time Made that motto evil One day at a time Countdown to my refills
