Addictions

Addictions come in many ways To the unknowing in a hellish blaze It starts out slow with sweet surrender Your mind and body seeking perfect splendor As time goes on not noticed at first Your fun has turned into an unquenchable thirst A fortress of denial with windows of excuses The door of opportunity long closed and useless Body racked with pain and a mind filled with guilt You have torn down what God has built To tired, too ill and wasting away to nothing You manage to cry out or just whisper something God my Father I have given away what you have given Please dear Jesus save me and help me start livin The clouds of depression start to slowly rise And you begin to understand and realize He has always been there and has never left Tears of joy running down your face as you wept He has placed you on a rock of salvation and hope Without Him you would either be dead or still hooked on dope.
