Poem to recovery

Want to see the depths of despair? I can surely take you there. Do you want to see what it's like to die? Take a look, open your eyes. Just one dose will get you hooked and you become the next chapter in my book of lies, deception, deceit. You'll be gasping for air and calling out for God, but he won't be there. Percocet. Oxy, roxy morphine. You'll do whatever you can to get one more of me

Thank you. So thank you so much. It really means a lot. And that's why I love to post my poems on this platform, especially things about recovery and posting about recovery on social media, because I feel as if one person can see I that somebody. It is possible. They say it's not you're most likely to not succeed. And they tell you all the bad things, but they don't tell you how many people do succeed if you really, really want to
