When I feel alone, I care of no one but my alcohol…

Those who have made it to be clean 1, 2, 3 days sober from alcohol you are my hero… Those who continue 7 days to a month and so on, you’re also a hero to me. . Thank you…

I battle meth…

Battling alcohol. . .

Its not that I’m not enough, it’s that I cannot withstand the heartache…withstand such stubbornness with my son’s dad so I drink… We disagree on so many levels…

My love my livelihood is my son…  
The light to my heart,  
The light in my darkness,

I would not be alive or here today without him.

He is my reason to live,  
Why can’t I let go of my ‘buzz’ that I yearn for while I wait to see him?

Did I cause that much damage?

Flowing feelings that I can only describe when I’m drinking …

I came  
I saw  
I conquered (myself)
