The Road To Recovery

Recovery is always a blessing
when blessings only ripen the air
no words could hurt or do us justice
I'm closer than never, finally there

Peaceful bliss is this sunrise
in my eyes lies subtle disdain
all the anguish nearly empty
closer to never, far from pain

The road to recovery is lined with thorns
on my mind, everlasting memories
I took the time as my faithful ally
until it was time for me to bleed

So I bled for days, I bled for you
to see my ways, of self abuse
I see it all around me everywhere
the fastest exit, a tightly wound noose

I want escape, but not that bad
I want to faint, and never come back
I want to want, and get it all
untilI realize, I just love to fall

On the road, I found recovery
through all the love, the love for me
on the road, a little pain
has helped me find myself again.

Bj Fard September 9, 2012 at 1:05 PM Thank you all on here that have given me such wonderful compliments over the last year. I started full of holes and doubts, and now I have a writers confidence. I am storing what I consider to be my next level of work, on message more hopefully. That's all my work is about, for me, for free(style) and full of message synergy. I hope anyone I share it with don't read too much into it, but rather use it for you, interpret it how you wish. I hope it lifts and/or inspires. <3 always, forever -Bj
