"I Believe In You!"

"Red eyes upon shadows,
stare at me for an hour or so and I'm praying it passes.
I was breaking mirrors,
and my reflection upon hourglasses.

That was me,
when I couldn't see the shining shore,
struggling to stay above water,
yearning for drugs,
always needing more,
but I found my new life,
so close to my death,
overdosing on ice and crystal meth.

Open your new eyes,
life is for living!

Just breath!

Stop thinking someone can fix you but God!
Stop believing in make believe!
Because miracles are given to those who are worthy,
wake up with new eyes,
don't wait to heed this when you're forty,
because life happens,
happens in a wink,
take it from someone who's been on it's brink,
you can change for the better,
you're worth more than you think!"
