I'm an addict
and now i see
i once used drugs
and they use me
I'm an addict
being true to my self
they stole my life they took my heath
im an addict
and its hard for me to deal
drugs made me lie they made me steal
i lost my family lost my friends
want to start new and make amens
i asked for forgivness
i know he heard me say
forgive me lord as i started to pray
im an addict
i need your help
forgive me and help me forgive my self
i want to be clean i want to be strait
i need to stop i cant go at this rate
im an addict
giving it every thing i got
to get where i am it has taking alot
i am clean now and it all seems so lovly
i am still an addict
but im in recovery

Welcome to AllPoetry!
First of all, writing is always a help to let the things bottled up inside, come out. And this is no different. And perhaps maybe it will help others too. But most importantly, is that it helped you. Maybe not all the way there yet, but you took what was the hardest steps- realizing and doing something about it! Now stick with it. I am proud to rad this.
Welcome to AP. If you have any questions or need help with anything, feel free to IM me.
Keep expressing through writing.
