Stay Away

this is about my alcohol addiction

The urge inside me is taking over my mind
I can not fight it
It is beating me down

I am helpless when it comes to you
You take everything from me
Even the strength I don't have

Back away from me
Please I beg you
Erase yourself from my mind
I don't want you anymore

Still I give in to you
This is the hardest thing to do
But i don't want you!

Go away and stay away
I am on my knees
Begging you to leave
I don't want you anymore

Hi Sheela,

This is powerful. I like the idea of you giving the illness a personality and individuality. It is powerful.

Nothing to do with the the review - but I am also a recovering alcoholic. Over 5 years now thanks to AA and one day at a time. Offering my support and encouragement anytime cause I too know how tough it is.

Take care, keep on writing because you are great; and be inspired!
