Words To Change Addiction

A Poem by LadyAnn68

 

Words to Change Addiction

 

The words to change addiction

Are honest, heartfelt and always strong

Writing helps find your voice once more

Come help sing this deep living song

When you enter into Recovery

A wonderful group to now belong

Post your words to the homepage

Cuz everything written there is never wrong

 

Please come write your story down

Don’t be timid or afraid to share

You’ve got the strength to bear this burden

You’ll find integrity is still there

There’s no need to abscond into darkness

Fight the shame and guilt you fear

Let them read all about it…read all about it…

Let them comment if you dare!

 

For all the feedback you receive

Upturn your lips into a smile

No matter if their comments sting

You know you’ve walked that mile

The hurt they try to inflict on you

Will bounce right off the tile

In your heart you’ve beat addiction

Put all pain in the “PAST” file

 

Once you’ve shared in print your story

Respect will echo all other sound

You can finally put that “PAST” file

Through the shredder to the ground

All endeavors and goals you seek

Will be successful bound

Recovery is the lighted torch that leads

Lost addicts to be FOUND!

 

WRIGHT IT DOWN! YOU WILL HEAL!
