“Addiction is like swimming in an ocean for a very long time...drowning really, ready to give in. You're so tired, but you keep swimming, and then you start REALLY drowning. It's like trying to gasp for a breath, one tiny inhalation to keep going, and you get the one breath, but you are near death, suffocation, and each time you still manage to get one small breath in to keep going. Until, finally either you break free, you swim away from that magnificent grip, that monster lurking that keeps pushing your head under, or you have drowned. You died. It's that simple.” PoetryPoetNicole DsettemiAddictariumAuthoressAuthor Nicole DLyric Poet Book:Addictarium Source: Addictarium

“When men perform egocentric activities, we tag it and brush it off like "oh he's a guy, they have egos." as if to say women don't. Well, guess what? One should HOPE we have egos too. After All, without an ego the only thing left is the ID. Primary ANIMAL instincts. You know what we call people with only an ID? Psychopaths.” PoetryPoetWar StoriesNicole DsettemiAddictariumHeroin MemoirsAuthor Nicole DLyric PoemsQuotes By Nicole Dsettemi Author:Nicole D'Settēmi

“The most interesting thing about writing a memoir is that people read it and automatically, think they have you pegged. You know? It would appear, an open book to your soul. But, I penned my own a decade ago. It was about a specific time. I'm not even the same person from one minute to the next, let alone a decade ago. So whatever you think you know about me, whatever crazy you've decided I am or fit, just remember... it's probably worse!” QuotesNicole DsettemiAuthor Nicole DLyric PoetPoet Nicole Book:WAR STORIES: Bombing Narcotica Source: WAR STORIES: Bombing Narcotica
