100-WORDS
The Addiction
How far can you go?
They mock me. They know, how dearly I want it.
The ticks of the clock intimidating. Every hour feeling like a day.
My hands, shivering, palms clammy. The need, the urge, slithering like a serpent, down my spine.
Just one more! What do I have to lose?
But will I stop? and turn into a recluse
They told me about it,
recovery and the route,
addiction and the root.
But will I give in and be devout?
Can I forget and focus?
`
Their words echo- it will result in hallow.
