I told you
        To stop me.
I confessed
                     So you can help me.
A truth
           I never admit

“ I always tell the truth unless it’s about my drug abuse”
“Il never confess to relapse”

“Till death do us part”
Getting High
Of methamphetamine
Till my casket drops.
There was no end
No future
No “one Day il Stop”
I gave my fate to it.
My destiny
Goals
Everything
Was inhaled & exhaled
In dope clouds .
I seen no other side
I’ve forgotten about reality
I was stuck in a day dream.

I Gave you
                The opportunity
                        To be in my life.
I held you responsible
to change me.


I accepted rehab
I Allowed Myself To See there’s life aside from twisting the pipe.
Gave myself the opportunity
To make a change .
It was you.
Who finally made me see clearity.


I improved slowly
Relapsed occurred
They weren’t anything major
I got myself back on
Sobriety road.

After many years
Of being stuck
Saying il stop
Till I die
You helped me see Different.
&
After
many years Of denying.
Years of hiding
Of using in silence .
I SPOKE up.

You saved me..
                    To **** me your self .

You damaged me 10x more
Than **** did it’s self .
You became my new
Deadly addiction.
