Recovery,
That was the goal
Discovery,
As I bared my soul
Happiness, it came
Happiness, it faded
And then followed misery,
As I became more jaded
I believed in the concept—
I trusted their lies
I murdered the drugs—
The drugs; I despise
The surrender from chemicals
The surrender of dope
But, the happiness fades
As now, I lose hope
The murder—it seemed
Was a resolution
It sounded so magical
It seemed the solution
A sky—colored bright
A seductive landscape
Fluorescent skies, majestic mountains
Gorgeous landscapes, spectacular fountains!
But illusion fades
And pink clouds dissolve.
And once more, sadness invades
And I have no resolve.

It is difficult to come out of addiction yet it is possible with will power and determination. Sometimes negativity leads to positive side.
