Lonely Day

6/9/10 part of a poetry compilation "on addiction" for a Creative Writing course I took this past year. (Title image by witchlady750 http://witchlady750.deviantart.com/)

Addiction is a lonely Life

And a lonelier end

Because that's all it is

A wound you cannot mend

And when the day comes

That you awake alone

Clear eyes and truly awake

For the first time in a long time

You'll stare into the unknown 

With no one by your side

You'll look down into the darkness

The all consuming abyss from which you have returned

You'll search for the light in the tunnel

Some trace of hope for the life you had

But there will be nothing

No love you once knew

No smiling face or tender caress

Nothing made it through 

Nothing survived

Through the storm of your addiction

The tempest of your warped mind

And when you finally awake

If you wake up

You'll see

You've been left behind
