The Fix

Info

In the middle of the night
Restlessness at it's peak"
It may be a festering childhood wound
Relationship struggle, overwhelming pain, a failure streak"
U need a way out of this metaphysical suffocation'
You need a fix
But hell too much frustration,
You want a quick fix, do hell with the ramification!'

You start it once to soothe you
To see if what suits some, suits you too
You started it so as to look cool, be chill, be high, look tough
But ended up being weak, lungs, liver, heart in tatters"
Shaking hands, cloudy thoughts, ur mind unable to cope up with worldly works, ur dreams and life shattered"
you don't realize exactly when every situation impatiently requires drugs
The sickening- yearnings,
Giving you a temporal relief
Only to realize that things if not solved are only compounded and hence complicated
U realize that now u r fixated

With time The stress in your life increase
So is the cigarettes pack, alcohol, drugs,
All screaming and screeching for hope
You find new ways to cope up, only to find urself in perpetual need of some dope,
You see only Darkness with no light in the lengths of this world
You need love, understanding, care
You are precious and you always were
You lost hope in the world and found refuge in the chemical imbalance induced by the drug
Drugs are Thugs who trade lives
Not only yours but those you hold dear all your life
Lives are ruined,
Ur need to be whole
Is drilling holes on ur souls

But You need a fix right now; long term problems, delusion, cancer, asthma, mental imbalance, reduce cognitive abilities whatever the ill effect u can fix it as long as you have this urge fixed
Not knowing that ignorance breeds ignorance
That you don't hoop a loop by going under or over it
You gotta get through
You know but you are too seduced by that one last drag, a sip of alcohol, that drop of lsd

Addiction is a burning desire
It is a Chase to find some more of what you don't have:peace
Peace is inside not in a cigarette pack, alcohol, hash, weed
Don't start it now it will find ways to consume you, the ever increasing need
Please don't sow the seeds if you haven't yet been into this quick fix
If already in, get help
Started to feel good and to put things in order
Now you feel an obsessive compulsive disorder!
Drugs virtually fix things but in reality messes up the surreal:
Love, lives and peace
Life is precious, moment counts
Don't let drug-addiction ruin your life to piece.
