Everyday people around the world suffer from drug and alcohol addiction, and mental illness.
It tears families apart, breaks trust, shakes your faith and turns you into something you swore you'd never be.
Most addicts cant get out alive.
But me? I beat the odds.
A personal poem of the struggle of addiction, and the quest for a better life.

Time Can't Heal This
I've always hated the saying "Time heals all wounds." Maybe in most cases that may be true. In my experience with life and pain however, time has only ever bled out the wound. The scars that the wounds left behind though, are often so deep that just looking at them becomes painful to the mind. Time only heals what you let go of. Sometimes letting go and moving on just doesn't feel possible; no matter how much time you let pass you by. These poems signify what time hasn't healed for me.Complete
