A Fight To Survive Poem by stephen day dolan

a fight to survive
a night of hell
no fuel no cigarettes no phone credit
oh how the cravings yearn the addiction kicking at your brain
a coffee might help mmmm nice thought
ohhhhh damn bloody decaffinated
just when you needed to be wired with lifes natural lift
a fight to survive
a night of hell
a sleep has helped
but wary to anyone who says a wrong comment
the niccotine craving is affecting emotions
a morning coffee oh damn still decaffinated
a family visit to endure
oh put needles in my eyes the torture of mundane talk
a fight to survive
a day of hell unless these craving are met
the simple things in life
fuel to taxi the family around
a cigarette to lighten and relax your emotions
a real coffee to brighten the day
and phone credit to talk to your love
oh how the hell is lifted
and survival is gained from these simple things
