Suffering Addict

Contributed by Recovery_poet on Saturday, 8th July 2006 @ 08:52:16 AM in AEST
Topic: drugabuse



Suffering addict
Im lost in the void of empty time
My days, your years
Your loves, my fears

An addict lost in her internal riot of emotion
With only one option presenting a valid case

One rig
One blade
One tear and one goodbye

Shes balancing on the edge of her void
The decision has been made

Rig jams
Blade dulls
Tear is wiped from her tired face
Goodbye is stuck in her dry throat

Decision was made
Her spirit was not willing to join the eternal freefall of death

A friend she doesnt even know saved her
Her friend doesnt know she saved someone
These two friends may never meet
If they do they will never know their spirits joined as one

Suffering addict without hope and with only one option
Recovering addict with faith and twelve steps

Love your soul, Nurture your spirit
For the millions of friends youll never meet
And that one time they may need it!

Sometimes we get so lost we forget those we touch or will...Thank you for the gentle reminder...May the pen provide strength and comfort when all is dark...~ML~

The title is appealing, and it drew me in, and I am glad for it. I really enjoyed the (admittedly unexpected) positive message this poem has, and BIG time kudos to you as well---for overcoming that most difficult of hurdles...I like the way you told this. Thanks for sharing.
