reminding myself

feeling oddly poetic....

I've been here before and stare across the table

My only friend is whats left inside a bottle

Addiction takes its toll I'm left without a reason

And fighting this alone has only made my wounds deepen

Still hope is not so far away, and love wants to heal all the shame

I lie about the hurt I bare and hide behind smiles I wear

I feel alone, admitting all the weaknesses and faults and failures through the years

And reaching out, I know I am no longer alone

Still hope is not so far away, and love wants to heal all the shame
