This Poem Is A Metaphor. " Dedicated To My Daughter And All Those Who Have Struggled With Addictions.
She had seen,
the other side,
of heaven.
Where she walked a narrow bridge,
between purgatory,
and eternal life.
She's not religious,
and no she's not,
Insane.
She dug her own grave,
In sinful soils,
with lost souls just like her.
I watched the darkest,
of clouds,
gathering my pain.
I sailed on the harsh winds,
that blew in,
with bright lightning and claps of thunder.
Then prayed for God,
to release,
the rain.
Yes, I have seen,
the other side,
of hell.
Let her temptation,
be put,
asunder.
I pray that she never crosses,
that narrow bridge,
again.
