You reach out and touch me
your will is to give me hope
You see my path of destruction
caught up in a world of dope
You have noticed the change in me
from the person I used to be
You want to help open my eyes again
because there is so much more to see
Caught up in a world of my own
I feel your touch, but it is so faint
The picture of this world I have
is a strange picture that I paint
Feeling so lost and lonely
even when I have a friend like you
You keep trying to pull me back to reality
because of your love for me, its what you pursue
My life was not going so well
so I wanted to experience a different path
Now I fight the addiction
and also fight the evil of its wrath
Dear friend of which you are
thank you for standing by my side
Thank you for helping me find myself
I no longer need to run and hide
Because of people like you
who speak out and help the ones lost in self infliction
Our eyes can again be opened
and feel once again, being able to fight our horrible addiction
I dedicate this to all of those fighting any sort of drug addiction

Bravo!! I/'/ve spent a fair share of my life in addiction to any number of substances; I can relate. If I spent 1/10th the energy in embracing a sober course as I did in a destructive one, I would be much farther down the road of recovery.
Well done poem...nice rhymes...not forced....flows well and leaves a very positive message.
