Starting New
I broke, I fell, I lost.
My family, my friends, what cost?
Now they just sit, now they just watch.
HELP, I did notĀ want.
NEED, I did not know.
Yet, to the bottle, my feet and hands still go.
SILENCE, blacked out, light gone from my head.
Thinking to myself;Ā "this is it, I am DEAD."
I just can't, get the visionĀ of you, out of my mind.
Loud RING, flashing lights, I hear screams, I hear cries.
Unknowing the scene, till I open my eyes.
"Call the poliece, we need help, some advice.
Come on dear friend, you're not going to die."
Able to speak, I speak my mind, and tell them don't, I'll be alright.
Now I'm awake, broken and sore, I give you away.
Then walk, through my door.

Thank you Gracia,
I'm still a recovering alcoholic. It's not easy I stopped drinking as much as I did. One gallon a day. Thanks to strangers am I able to see just what difference just a few moments can make. I fell victim to my own choice, now I chose not to hide thank you Gracia.
