~I'm addicted to Tildes ~ I can't let them go ~
~ I use them too much ~ believe me I know ~
~ But I feel like they help me put on a good show ~
~ Yes, I'm addicted to Tildes ~

Commas are handy, they're potatos and meat
You can use them whenever you wish to stay neat
For organization, they just can't be beat
~ But I'm addicted to Tildes ~

Ellipses are useful to leave some suspense . . .
"And quotations can sometimes make us feel tense"
(parenthesis also help us make sense)
~ But I'm addicted to Tildes ~

[Brackets] and -dashes- can be beneficial
a hyphen hooks-up two words very special
An 'apostrophe' sticking up like a bristle
~ But I'm addicted to Tildes ~

While I know that a colon is very artistic  :>)
A semi-colon can be quite problemistic ;-[
And now you may see that I'm quite idealistic
~ But I'm addicted to Tildes ~
