Addiction is…
Addiction is the feeling of hot sauce hitting your tastebuds
Addiction is how your body feels after a warm massage
Addiction is the feeling of drinking water
Then immediately feeling thirsty right after
Addiction is flipping a pillow too it’s other cold side
Addiction is hitting your toe against a wall
Just to feel the sharp pain go through you
Addiction is staring up at the stars while listening to crickets chirping
Addiction is laying on your bed after your entire friend group deserted you
Addiction is taking a bite of your favorite food
Addiction is like every thought you make
Will come back to get you at some point
Addiction is everything you say and do
Will have the thought “this could be better”
Addiction is
