Array ( [sid] => 62030 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => I'm Outta Love [time] => 2004-08-31 09:27:02 [hometext] => My problem lies within my love for alcohol.... [bodytext] => I’m outta love for you,
Your love makes me feel so blue,
I don’t need you to hold my hand,
I am strong enough to make a stand.

For too long I shown you weakness,
You just ripped me into pieces,
I thought it was me who was wrong,
Listening helplessly to your demonic song.

The one day I opened my tired eyes,
I had the wanting to get up & fly,
Go to someone who could show me,
What & how love was meant to be.

You had rendered my deep under your spell,
Threw me down into addictions deep well,
With no ladder so I could climb out,
No-one ever heard my screams & shouts.

I have to go it alone & be brave,
Before you helped me into my grave,
I found the courage to finally break up,
Spat your poisoned nectar from my cup.

From you I desperately needed to withdraw,
I no longer wanted to be your whore,
You were so much more than just an addiction,
You felt like my lifelong conviction.

A salute to you for being strong, one day one hour at a time.....and one day maybe I may be, as brave as you and once more free.


Beautiful tribute to a brave spirit.

Paddle in hand, I'll step aboard your boat. I have struggled as well, but have found much security in the fellowship of others that have navigated these waters. You can do this. And you will find strength and support here ...

A fabulous write pixie
