A Worthwhile Addiction Poem by PAUL COLVIN

I hear people talk of their drugs and addictions,
I hear of their cravings, their losses, afflictions
How can it change them break them or kill?
Well, I too am an addict and it’s not to a pill.
Oh! Mine is a drug and I need it to live
And if I could buy it, how much would I give?
It doesn’t cause sadness or hurt anyone
For this drug is free and gives so much fun
Each task is simple and brings with it a smile
The addiction I speak of is the thing we call love
This richest of vices, is all I’m guilty of.
