drugabuse

DAMN! I said that I was through! So why won't it leave
I keep telling myself I CAN DO THIS, I just need to believe.
Oh lord please tell me why this addiction has so much power
My judgement, and strength, it wants to devour
I give in, and I see my life walk out the door
And the only thing in my mind is damn I want more
I don't know what has happened to me
If you know someway to help, please answer my plea
Without this drug, do you know how perfect my life would be ?
I am a wife, a mother and I have a college degree
That's right I have three children of my own
Man I can't believe how much they have grown
I do the best I can for them, but its not enough, I must confess
And I am so very sorry for ever putting them in this mess
I look into their eyes so innocent and pure
And I am sorry for hardship they've had to endure
There are times when they ask if I can play
And I feel so burnt that I say, "baby, not today"
And I am sorry, so sorry, oh god Im so sorry
I am sorry for the person their mommy has become
I'm so sorry for not being there when they just want to have fun
Oh lord I am begging you, please
From one parent to another, I am down on my knees
Please give me the ability to become stronger
Trust me when I say I don't want to be like this any longer
My family is something I don't want to lose
So why can't I just stop wanting to use
So many have done it, why can't I do the same?
I know its my fault, I know I'm to blame!
There is so much more that I want to say, but I just don't know how
All I know is that I need help, and I need it right now

I am going to say this basically and bluntly
I do not forgive my parents
for not being able to quit the drugs
just so that they could keep me and my sister
but no
I went through so many foster parents
and I went through so many people that didnt love me
and if you dont want your kids to go through the same things
then I suggest you stop this now
because if they get pulled
it will be FAR to long
before you are going to get to see them again
and before they will forgive you
So thats what I have to tell you
take it to heart...
I even have poems
about it...
So yeah its quite terrible...
*Good Luck, and best wishes*

i hate to say it but addictions usualy are that person's fault, but if u beat urself up ver it nothing good will happen. u have to focus on the positive, and if u cant do this on ur own, get all the help u need. good luck and good writting.

very true poem
but their is help out there for you
I know i once felt the same as you
you must be willing to stop for you and ready
life is much too short to waste so stop messing around and do something about it now. if your not ready then your not ready
but when you are dont waste time |
