Saying Goodbye To Addiction

Addictions of Yesterday

Almost let you drag me down,

Drowning out the voices,

Denying myself the freedom,

I stand tall and proud,

Chaos has been my life,

Time and time again,

Impulsive choices and actions,

Obstacles I've created,

Narrowing my treacherous path,

Silently I cry,

~

Oblivious I have been,

False emotions led me astray,

~

Yesterday has come and gone,

Ending the pain I've caused,

Sins forgotten as quickly as they come,

Today marks day one of the beginning,

Expecting to be alone,

Ready I am not,

Doubt filled thoughts cloud my judgement,

Anxiety stills my steps,

Yesterday I said goodbye.
