Poem -

To finally get life right

Ready for that change

I've learned a new kind of pain,
One that I've never felt before,
My heart is extra heavy,
the tears just want to flow.

My daughter doesn't know who I am,
When in my arms she wanted her instead.
How could I allow this to happen,
Have I really been so blind?

Addiction has taken so much from me,
Made me forget just who I am.
The devil has come fist over my priorities,
taking away the life I always dreamt. 

To live life straight is what scares me most,
Not just that but the feelings that over flow.
There's pain deep within I've not seen myself,
A pain I must for once feel and let go.

To seek a sponsor and ask for help I know I must,
For guidance and support through all the tear,
And to help me walk through all my hidden fears.
For I know this is the last chance to finally get shit right.
