Rehab Poems

from darkness to light

for long i swam oceans fed by rivers of sin
my restless mind withheld no trespass on earth
each thought i hatched took root within my soul
and my deeds unveiled the hidden rot i sowed

my conscience died buried in the devils vineyard
i smoked beyond what my fragile lungs could bear
i drank each bottle that promised me forgetting

Premium MemberRehab For Love

Did you know that such a place as this exists? Neither did I until I had no other choice but to look into it
I knew there must be a way to deal somehow to stop the pain, they have rehabs for all other addictions why can’t love be the same?
You can be addicted to sex,

For Her Jewels of Time

She looked at me calmly opening her narrow lips
Luis the name brought an ache to my wounded ego
In my pride I had ended up shipwrecked in the rehab

...You can make it even when they all say you cant
I swallow my pride and prod,.. 

I like you Merc.. Can we be an item
Were the circumstances different

Rehab

REHABS
Doctors and nurses 
QUIET!
They say. 
We live like mannequins,
Think like 
Man kneel 
KILL! 
We are like zeros.
They prove to be heroes .
Real help or real herbs
We stay confused, 
Civilization so we hear! 
Real helps or rehabs
Drug full or drug free.

Premium MemberCardio-Rehab

Cardio-Rehab is an exceptionally good thing to do
I keep up with machines better than walking with you
With the newfangled treadmills I can see the world
While I am getting nowhere fast, my sails unfurled,
Yesterday, I walked a gorgeous park in old Indonesia
Finished, I thought they should give me anesthesia,
For I was completely tuckered out and needed

Psych Rehab

Nerve chemical is a toxic chemical..
It is colourless and odorless..
It dissolves in water..
It can be delivered in food..
It can be injected to cause plegia..
It causes paraplegia and quadriplegia.
Supari killers use it as silent weapon.
Note.Stay away from Psych Rehab.....

Rehab

He told me look back at it 
Got him comin back like a crack addict 
He says he's got a craving 
Body aching
Hands shaking 
He's a fiend for it 
Plot and scheme for it 
He gets what he gets 
Still throws a fit 
He can't quit 
He's got it bad

Journey Home

Being alone is not something I fear.
Now that I’m stronger,
I won’t shed a tear.
I have to tell myself,
“Mind over matter.”
Somedays,
When the lonely blues hit,
I really struggle
To combat the latter.
Some nights,
I dream of home
And I have to remind myself of
Why I’m here.
The friends I have lift my spirits
And make my “journey home” easier.
It’s been a long

Premium MemberIn and Out of Rehab

I’ll drink it down, neat in one go
Drink it down, with nothing at all
Straight up, knock it back 
Straight up, knock down the wall 

I don’t need, any mixers 
Diluted crap, don’t do it at all
Hundred percent, no fifty fifty 
Line the lot up, against a wall 

Wanna feel it, burn my stomach 
Strip the

Adding confusion to choosin'

But never could win
And that's why I turned to boozin'

Premium MemberJohnny Cash

Johnny Cash had great
Compassion for the
Working class and the poor.
‘I fell into a burning ring of fire,
I went down, down, down, 
And the flames went higher’
Johnny Cash, a fifties and sixties, a
Much applauded singer,
Fans chased him, girls chased 
Him, but he befriended drugs,
‘And it burns, burns, burns, 
The ring of fire,
The ring of fire,’
His first

Inevitably

Day old coffee
in its maker
a cold witness
sometimes
to broken dreams
and war stories
and proclamations
of
getting well
of
new beginnings
of
hearty hope.

Solemn stories and
cloudy memories
and Joe
laughter’s echo
at some obscure
joke but
the window
knows
how schemes get
distorted
deformed
disfigured.

Some have just
flown that way
inevitably
some do go
without ceremony
without fanfare
no hoopla
simply vanish
and all that’s left
are
empty seats
empty room
empty maker
waiting for
the next batch
of sunshine.
