Addiction

Posted by T.S.Garp

Sometimes life’s problem can really get you down and learning to face them in the mirror can set you on the road to recovery.


I can’t stop staring at my image in this window of tricks

I can’t hide how I feel with so many soft licks

I want to leave me

I want to seize thee


Whenever I walk into town without colors to see

Whenever I talk to clowns without numbers to me

Why don’t they see?

Why don’t they make me believe?


Shadows on the wall

Silent phones won’t call

I got myself to blame for all the problems on my list

I stare back at the woman who made this


Now I want to leave me

How I can face and see

I have to kick these fears away

I have to fix these tears in the mirror


Have to set me free

She stares back,

with such a need

Nothing is going to get me


Not without a fight

Come on and face me right

I’m ready to begin a life in the light
