Sobriety's Rise

I exiled you from my veins

You will never affect me again

Take with you the very worst of me

I will no longer be a part of thee!

-
Too long have my eyes been closed
So many years have passed in vain
I couldn't let the road ahead get any worse

I'm no longer a victim of your taint
I dwell no more- in those old woes
Though I regret the pain I allowed myself to sustain

Mirrors don't snare / Family doesn't glare
This hope I bear / I've made it here

Cleansed my spirit away / Allowed scars to fade
Embraced the change / Unlocked the cage


My dreams no longer weep
The nightmares refuse to reimmerse
I can move forward if I really believe

I was able to get passed the hurt
'cause I forgave myself for being weak
I am not drowning myself anymore!

-
Deemed my recovered soul worthy

I accepted the gift of clarity

Today- I am alive

Watch me rise!
I pushed you out of my veins
I will never taste your pain again
