Comment from PatVallesMangan
This is a well done poem about the life of an addict. Sometimes this is what it takes for the healing to begin. I am very glad that you have met God and embraced Him. The rhyme and rhythm work well as a background to this very dark story. You did a great job. I am glad that you share the hope with others. God Bless ~ Pat

It is a very grim and sad poem throwing light into the mind of an addict.Regrets ,inability to go back and thankfully seeing God and never wanting to go back.

This is a well written poem about a near death experience. It seems addicts are more dead than alive. At least to themselves. The picture shows the person at a crossroads in the middle of the bridge trying to choose the darkness or the light. Addiction or health.
I am glad you are better know. This poem shows how faith can keep a life moving toward the best.

Comment from Simple Reflection
I love the words! The intensity and meaning spill out in ever line. I dont think every line reads as smoothly as they could. For instance, if i try to get the flow in the first couple of stanzas, the fourth stanza doesnt follow the same rhythm. Very touching though, i especially enjoyed the last two stanzas.

Sometimes it takes death "An addicts end reward part 2" Bad choices - bad ideas. I am not an empathiser of drug addicts and suicide contemplators, but it's your work that I'm interested in, not the condition. Well done.

To crzypnter,
You have captured the reality of a drug addict that really doesn't know any where to turn than down.
The appalling feeling is dredged with deep wounds that your own reality could never comprehend.
It is nicely written and portrays the image of many that are lost in such a forbidden area of hopelessness.

Perfect photo for the perfect poem. The life of an addict is a living hell here on earth. Sounds like you were given a second choice. And that you realize how great that is. I applaud you for being strong enough to over come your bad choice. Good luck in your new and clean life.

It's so sad the depths an addict reaches. This sounds like you've been there and managed to make it back into the life of the living, not simply existing. So glad you felt God's healing Grace. Hoping life continues to reveal its beauty, inspiring you to seek more!
Thanks for sharing this with me.

Excellent use of words that shows the path of addiction. I like how finding God brings the addict to a better place. Excellent flow of lines and verses.

When I died I saw God, and Heis showingshowed me
After wondering "what it was like to really/feel the pain," the speaker "slid the razor deep" across his/her vein.
Then, after dying, the speaker has a revelation, and as a result, has "made amends to the people in" his past.
I assume this is to be read allegorically, and that the vision of God was some kind of realization that changed the speaker's life.
Cheers,
DW
