Enough is enough

Enough is enough

A Poem by John A Common
"

Standing up again.

"

I blew my rent money on booze.

Had a book reading yesterday,

I'm so screwed up I dont even care about the book.

Today I cannot stop puking and shiting.

I am done with this s**t.

I have to quit drinking,

or I die.

It's time to get back up.

Enough is enough.

God please help me.

This is no way to pass.

Enough is enough.

Oh yea! Crack in the bottle....lol Hello, at least there is the admission of a problem, that is the first step. Second, realizing it is a sickness. Sometimes you just need the help. But then you fall into the what is "your drug of choice." Never ask me that...lol "Got Addiction" I know I do and I have to monitor my fun, or I will fun out....if you get my drift. And to hell with a bunch of 12 steps programs. Funny don't remember how I stopped, but I did.

Addiction is fun, until it gets out of hand. I've gotten help for my most serious addictions, but I'm still dealing with some others. Kick your addiction!

This is a powerful piece. It is conclusive right from the beginning, but emotional nonetheless.

This poem is great. It shows the reality so many people wish to avoid and deny. Good job putting it out there for the world to see.
