As I gaze upon the open field
I try to think of how they feel
Watching slowly as my life fades
Sober now for only 3 days
As I get clean I spiral down
I fixate my mind on my final gown
As the seas rush so willingly
My tears flood so chillingly
An out of body opportunity
Seeing their true unity
The things I let die inside
Due to cravingss i cant subside
Fearng what could be the end
I continueto try to get sober again
Rehab and torment to help me save
This blessed life, I must be brave
Loved ones tear up as I apologize
Seeing they no longer have to fear goodbyes

Congrats! on getting Sober!!!
What a great read! This is fantastic! I have been through this with many friends, and it is hard for those on this side, watching what happens to those we love as they drink or use drugs. It is great to see someone write from the side of the one cleaning up!
Best of luck in this contest!

thanks
I always thought that watching a few of my family members and lots of my friends go through it
that I would never go down that path
I guess it really is true that you do what you know.
and thats what i was around and then later in life surronded myself with.
Im glad that I am sober too and glad that though i still have friends that do it that i can refrain from all temptations
thanks again for the comment
Its greatly appreciated
