From Darkness to Light

A journey through hurt and healing

By Christy WilliamsPublished 12 months ago • 1 min read

my days and nights fly by so fast,

months turn into years in the blink of an eye.

i force myself to eat, my body makes me sleep,

and i keep telling myself to quit—

living like this ain’t it.

this drug has me sick,

and my emotions get buried deep.

no amount of dope will ever heal

the pain i keep from my past.

so put the needle down,

put the pipe away,

and start to pray.

the Lord will walk with you

every step of the way.

believe in yourself,

let Jesus come in—

that’s when your heart will heal,

and the devil will never win.
