A letter to our addiction.............

Hello fellow addicts I am your disease,
I will never let you sleep or put your mind at ease,

I will always be here no matter where you go,
I am smarter than you and I am in control,

Family, friends, and loved ones they won't matter anymore,
I'll take everything you got and still want something more

I was there for you in the good times but mostly in the bad,
I've made you feel so happy but in the end you was always sad

You will lie to everyone and say that I ain't real,
but if that's the case why can't you put down that pill

I come in many forms, and shapes, and size
Then following comes denial, deceit, and lies

I will turn you from everyone that tries to take you from me
Together we will spend all eternity

I'll embrace you in my arms and I'll never set you free,
Spend our life together won't that make you happy,

Don't let those people tell you what I am all about,
Cause then you'll find a way; a way to kick me out

Well here I go now I'll just be on my way
but not for to much longer cause I still have much to say

So when you think I'm gone and you can finally be at ease,
Just remember this I will always be your disease.

* I know if I can make it thru this I will have to "deal" with it forever...it's not going away......

    No the disease does not go away but at some point it can how ever be arrested and recovery is then possible I talk from experience I have not used in quit sometime, but I still have the disease of addiction I have learned to live with it without the use of drugs and alcohol.    amen.

God performs miracles, I am far from perfect but ... I have not used in 30 years. I meditate every morning for 15 -30 minutes and thank him
