Sober

[Poetree P]

I got to get out of my house not
carried out having to live the
rest of my life with myself
not wanting drug use keep

going on I know the choice
stop or don't I look at me
and it shows the worlds
like this and I was on

the phone needing to get
high will be right over it has
progressed from a teen with
no paranoia stoner to this

illness alcohol and pills I have
no closure life has progressed
to no one only my family and
friends been clean 10 years

and that's what I get troubles
melting away back to myself
hopefully to be paid gap in
my work history I am not

not in the best home
its right for me
though

I like the way this meanders - stream of consciousness poetry I call it (don't know if that's a real term). It takes us on a journey and deposits us back without a definitive ending - more of a pause in the action. I wonder what you'll post next???
