Distant Sunrise

K_scanga2698

I gotta let it go, I know this...

Hurting deep inside I never show it

I'm only getting worse when I think I'm getting better

Will I torture myself forever?

MomViand Dad I know it hurts deep inside

To watch your little girl get caught up in the wrong fight

Lost in the life, I know your not suprised

Two grown who have lived that life

I try not to cry

I know I got to grow and focus on what's the most important,

But regardless I end up hopeless, lost and souless 

Dying on the inside praying my dad don't lose his life 

Found out he was sick and now I can't sit right

I'm really sorry all the times we would fight

Trying so hard to make my life right

Sometimes I get to thinking Ill never win the fight

I lose so much sleep at night

Mom and Dad I love you and I hope you know this

We are all trying so hard to not be hopeless 

Keep holding on tight, there's always light after dark nights

I promise soon will come our sunrise 

Mom and Dad everything's gonna be alright.

  • Comment from author about the poem: I am currently battling with a drug addiction, and this poem symbolizes the hurt and sorrow I feel to see how a drug addiction effects not only myself but the people around me. It is a very upsetting realization, and in realizing that I still cannot break free from the chains, even though I am hurting myself and the ones around me. All my parents have wanted for me was to succeed and I feel I have let them down. It is an everyday battle but I still continue to fight for my family because you never know when it is the last time you will see them. I will not stop fighting until I win
