    Dancing with the Devil

    I'm so tired of all the guilt and pain I feel
    Is this really my life, Is this even real?
    I don't know how my life got this bad
    One day I was with my kids the next I was sending them to live with dad
    I gave up everything to dance with the devil
    And hes got me dancing on a whole nother level
    When I thought things were bad, they got even worse
    Now I'm walking around with needles in my purse
    I have scars on my arms and my hands
    Why didn't anyone warn me this wasn't what I planned
    I wish I could go back and change my decision
    My only hope now is one day to be forgiven
    I want my kids to know I'm sorry for being so irresponsible
    And I will make it up to them if that's even possible
    And to my kids dad I apologize for all I put you through
    I know you wanted to fix me but there was nothing you could do
    But I am learning as I go but it comes with so much shame
    It was my fault and no one else I should blame
    All I can do now is take one day at a time
    This is gonna be one hell of a mountain to climb

    Sounds like you've reached the valley floor. Time to lift your eyes unto the hills from whence cometh your help.

    Thank you so much for your comment. It was really hard for me to out this poem out for others to read because it is so personal. Your comment means more then you know and I thank you

    Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
