Creeping From the Light
Creeping From the Light
By Steven Pineda
Tears roll from my face! Full of guilt and ashamed from the world
I turn my head from the light and walk into the darkness
I’m alone! Only god feels my pain and worry
What have I become? Nothing just an empty shell with a heart that bleeds black and beats for no reason
I dream of happiness and friendship but when will it come?
Satan has me by the bottle!
My only true felling of living is from the burning in my stomach from the poison I consume
It fills the void and for a moment I feel serenity but its just a glimpse
I need more and more of Satans remedy!
When will it end? Death is really the only way out
Unless my savior will take me into the light and show me the right path
Such a warm idea please help me before my addiction takes me away!
I wrote this poem because Iam a recovering alcoholic and it seems like I cant get away from drinking I turn to it for anything thing I cant deal with in life. But one day I will escape this evil addiction. Thank you all for reading this little piece of my mind.
