The mind of this addict…

​I can’t proclaim to know it all, 
Falling into a trap, which you felt you were in control of, then you began to fall. 

For me it was grief, I lost someone close, 
That person was always there for me.. at this time I needed them the most.

Others said they said but didn’t put their neck on the line,
Sometimes harsh and tough words are mentioned, this tapestry of addiction is so difficult to define.

I can’t say I know it all
Neither could anyone else, 
They have touched on their higher power, and see a ‘new life’ which enriches new wealth. 

Some call it God and some call it a higher power
I struggle with this addiction but I do my best ‘just for today’ to try stay focus and live this day through 
This disease is so gentle and silent and sometimes there is nothing else you can do.
