For many days, I oh was so alone
No where to turn, scared to the bone
I sat in my room, my addiction my answer
Yet all it did was act like a cancer
Eating away, at all that was me
For ever in this dark, I would never be free
Day by day , more and more of me was lost,
Winter kept on coming, covering me in frost
It started off as a warm spring night
Little did I know so much cold was in sight.
In what felt like hours, but maybe just minutes
My very soul pushed to its limits
My clothes stripped, my dignity too
That night I thought, I wouldn’t see it through
I lay there after, for what seemed like hours
Imagining on my grave , what type of flowers
This my story, I told too late
and by that time addiction seemed my fate.
Winter felt like it would last forever
Never would I see my happily ever after
I still feel lost but I’ve now got some light
Please please realise it’s not just your fight
Open up and don’t be afraid
Come in to the light and out of shade
It won’t be easy I can promise that
But what of you they took, is not all you’re about!
You’re here today, maybe not standing tall
But today can be the day you less and less fall
Start your life and begin
And think of times to remember when
A time when the sun shone ever so bright
A time when you weren’t alone to face the fight
Draw strength from the fear and use it for power
And move away from your darkest hour
As spring begins you start to thaw
Your days become less about fighting this war
Your life is your own, not those little shites
Your life is your story, your publishing rights
