what she thought she knew

3 A.M., wide awake, her eyes you can not see
instead what's there is that blank stare
her thoughts she can not flee

Time creeps by as she sits alone, this day much like the rest
Of all the things she holds inside, fears what she knows the best

What scares her is knowing life will never get better, It'll always stay the same
Until the day she finds her hope, her addiction she'll never tame

As each hour passes, her body grows weak
As she does what she knows, what she knows is to tweak

Author notes

This is the first thing I have written in a very long time to say the least. Things have been really fucked up. I would really appreciate it if you could read and leave a comment.

    Wow. That's sad. Is this a personal experience? If so...damn...sorry. That's one of the worst things to be addicted to. Hardest to quit anyways. Good luck!!

    that made me think of my cutting addiction that i'm trying very desperately to quit... it's been like 21 days now that i haven't cut which is fucking great for me... but every day seems to pass by so slowly and the one thing that i feel could help me feel better because of everything that's going wrong of course is cutting...
    i feel lost right now.. but i suppose in the end, it will all turn out as it should... great write.

    Things only get better when you work really hard to make them so ... life is hard and full of woe, my sister ... make it better for yourself ... and keep writing great stuff like this ... it helps to chase the demons away (sometimes)
