Ecstasy Or Agony?

Euphoria it was all the way

On cloud nine my trip began

Heights of ecstasy frustrations none

Merry company flocked by friends

Oh! wasn't I the lord in my den?

Bathing I was in Lethe river

Oblivious of worries nothing to be glum

Voices of sanity sounded like enmity

Life was a massive celebration

If my system was shrieking for attention

The voices got drowned in consumption

Indulgence grew heavier by the day

I began to flail in depths, I quivered

The toll visible in my wrecked liver

Enormous price for evitable addiction

The poison I mistook for ambrosia

Turned my life into endless affliction

Lying lifeless in fading glamour of my den

Clutching onto gallons of poison

Torment of my soul visible on my visage

Slipping slowly into eternal oblivion

I am inching to agonizing end

With no soul around no kin no friend

My tombstone might read:

Lost in labyrinths was a wholesome whole

Consumption consumed a misguided soul
