I was completely powerless at the time of writing this poem. I had given up trying to stop drinking and using, I knew I had zero willpower left. I handed over my life to drugs and alcohol and did whatever I could to obtain them.
I am filled with gratitude today that I no longer have to live that way! I am experiencing a freedom I never thought was possible. I feel a happiness I never knew existed. A real sense of joy, not some facade of chemically induced euphoria. It is amazing.
We give control
To the desires of life
Against our temptation
We are losing the fight
Starving ourselves
To let the demons feed
Hand over the wheel
Like it’s their life to lead
To easily do we give in
And allow them to guide us
Through this life of sin.
