Goodbye To You Poem by Candis Smith

This is my letter to say goodbye.
To all those nights you made me cry.
One line, one puff, one blast, maybe more.
I had no idea of the life I had in store.
I handed you my soul, my body, my mind.
I wish my life was like a movie, I need to hit rewind.
My heart became your prisoner, I was blinded by your love.
Even at my rock bottom, I hadn't had enough.
A battle with the pleasure, a battle with the pain.
That security you gave me, I must've been going insane.
You ripped apart my family, pushed away all of my friends.
My beautiful babies were disappointed, they lost their mommy once again.
Now that I've lost my heart and my soul,
I'm standing at that point of which way to go.
I'm exhausted with living this life of despair.
The lies and the secrets to my loved ones have been unfair.
I ache for my children, my family, my life.
I'm picking up the pieces, I'm making this right.
The time has come to say goodbye.
Time to fight, cause I don't want to die.
