A Sorry Star

Head down in shame,

she gave up the beer.

Wishing upon a sorry star.

"May God help my soul."

Deep within the core--

yearning for another glass.

She softly weeps---

she'll conquer the spell.

Being led a hellish way

with an upturned palm.

Rational insanity

behind the laughter.

I like the picture that is painted here. Someone finally deciding to recover and trying ,it captures the insanity that someone goes through just to quit an addiction . :)
