Good poem. About bad choices.
SO MANY DEMONS AND I SURE COULD USE AN ANGLE NOW.
IT'S GOTTEN OUT OF HAND AND IT'S STARTING TO DRAG ME DOWN

I was an addict and I never knew
the facts
Until I saw the beauty of God, now I am
never going back
Congratulations on getting free and vowing to never go back. Addictions can be hard to overcome, but with the help of God all things are possible

Blessings, Pat

Excellent, but sad.
Your poem was inspiring as what not to do.

Two men stand on a cliff, each prepared to dive into the water below, one wants to live and find fame and fortune; he is not afraid to die.
The second man is lonely, confused, and does not want to live; he is not afraid to die. He is afraid to live.

Think of the power of a man who has no fear of death, he will be strong, and invincible. No challenge will be refused, no reward will be squandered. He is willing to meet the Angel if Death, but he does not seek him out.

Giving up a life, is giving up. God gave man a life to build on, not put in the ground; dead bodies do not help man, or mankind.

Addicts must be embraced, and reinforced with the understanding and belief that every life is important, and must not be sacrificed. Tomorrow is a "do over," a clean slate, and a new beginning.

Reach out to all, for many will take your hand, your contribution will be rewarded, ". . .for what you do for the least of mine, you do for me."

This is so incredibly dark, deeply emotional and very moving. The flow, rhyming and progression are wonderfully written and the reader cannot help but feel the pain of the writer's total despair. Also, thank you for reminding the reader that addicts are still people who deserve our understanding, rather than our judgment. Very well done, and thank you for sharing.

Your heartfelt poem gives us so much insight into the way a person's life can be ruined so easily. Personally, I hold the dealers responsible, not the addicts. If no one had given them that first fix, they would never have gotten addicted. Well done for showing how it feels from the other side so well. Alexis x

Sometime addicts sustain their habit at the expense of others, but I admit they are mainly there because of bad choices. Excellent writing poetically expressed.

Unfortunately before reading this I had not read Part I. However, this tells an interesting story and with the way you wrote it could easily picture what was transpiring.

Not to mention, the message is very truthful.

Thanks for sharing this. JW

Whatever works, I always think. I'm not into religion and Christianity, but I can see where that might work for some people. It's good to feel someone is on your side. Good for you if you've found some way to turn your life around.
You have some good rhymes and your rhythm works fine. Good luck and well done, crzypnter.

This was so intense and so very good. The imagery is horror as nd it works very well. You actually describe your feelungs before the suicide and after. I liked that you saw God.

One nit:

I think you want to say that you CAN'T breathe when you feel pain in your lungs.
