Once you start you cannot get enough. Its like a tumor that spreads around your body creating a mutant self, then it drags you to a black void that leaves you in lonely despair. But there is hope; there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I can cleanse myself, make everything right. How to do it is the question. And who will help me. My mother rejected me and I never knew my father. I have no friends they all left me. Oh how I regret my fateful decision. One truly is the loneliest number.

 

But you have me…we can be together forever. 

I try to shake you out of my head, you’re an addictive beast that I need to rid myself of.

You don’t mean that. I’ve always been there for you. How much can you depend on friends and family? They left you stranded alone…but I stayed.

You were the cause of all these problems…you’re the one that did this to me.

That isn’t true. I’m here for you.

 The poisonous voice leaks into my brain, taking over my body. There is no escape.

You need me! And you will always need me! You can’t live with out me!

 Stop! Leave me alone I don’t want anything to do with you! I pick up the xbox and carry it to the window.

Don’t do it you will regret it! You can’t survive without me. 

 

I throw the game consol out the window. I’m finally free of the darkness, I can see the light. I walk outside of my house and take in the fresh air, the sun beaming down on me. The xbox laid in ruins on my grass, its control over me now gone. I am free!

as i began reading this i thought you made a mistake by putting into the humor category but to my surprise the xbox came into play haha. i enjoyed this. and i can relate. many times in the past i can remember how i became a slave to my playstation console. i would cancel plans with friends and ignore my family the moment i had a brand new video game to play.
