It's A Secret
Can I share a little secret with you?
Please don't tell anyone if I do.
I need to discuss a problem in my life,
The one I don't share but try to hide.
To the world outside, I laugh a lot,
Making jokes and always cutting up.
I'm the life of the party, or so they say,
With dancing and singing when the music plays.
Eventually, though, I have to go home,
Which is where I feel mostly alone.
I have my husband and my children who I love,
Yet there's something that I find I can't give up.
I bet you're wondering now what seems so bad.
Well, the problem is the drink in hand.
I'm a prisoner to this addiction that I carry,
With the demons attacking me and want to bury.
I hope redemption one day will come,
And I'll lay down the poison and then run,
Just praying that the devil will let me be,
And Jesus then will come and set me free.

This is amazingly Powerful DENISE!!..... my sister died from alcoholism!!..... and I had periods in my life that were a struggle when I turned to alcohol to deal with them.... thank God that's all behind me now!!.... but the fact that you pit these words down on paper says so much!!..... you're asking for help by doing this for one thing!!..... the other is that you're approaching what alcoholics call their "Bottom".... that point where they either commit to drinking themselves to death... or decide to take actions to stop drinking.... just remember that if you're a heavy drinker.... you can't just stop 'Cold turkey!'.... it's too dangerous and can kill you..... you need to wean yourself off or get help to so!!..... either way.... you'll be in my prayers...,I have a LOT of experience with this addiction and I can tell you ~ 'yours is NOT an easy path!!"..... God bless you dear poet sister!!..... and Godspeed!!..... your cyber-friend!!.....tony xo ?✳✴♥☀?♥♥??
Thank you so much! I actually have sobriety time in (thank you, Jesus!), and was writing from my past experience. I cried out for help, and things are SO much better now. It's still a battle, I'm not going to lie, but it sounds like you have experience with this subject, so you know it's a fight almost daily. I am SO SORRY to hear about your sister. My brother-in-law died at 37 from it. It's.a.disease that kills people every day. I hate it, and I will fight this every day, and with God's help be successful! God bless you! ❤❤❤
