Withdrawal

Cold Turkey

By Shawn.SPublished 5 years ago 1 min read
Breaking myself down

Trying to sleep; rushing through the days till I can live without a fix

I love your daily visits, but where I'm at no visitors allowed.

When I realized the truth, that your really gone

My Body started burning

I began sweating

My vision ( goals, dreams, reality) became blurry

Haven't ate in days

Fearful of sleep, Dreams of you turned into Nightmares.

The Nightmares started killing my thoughts of you.

When I hear your name, I violently shake.

When the numbness and anxiety subsides

It's followed by a wave of suicidal thoughts

The 18th day of the 5th month, 26th of the 11th month and the 25th of the 12 month is when the pain at its worst.

Anything to end this pain, someone come end this pain.

I heard your voice, and you said " Time for rehab ".
