“Inner Peace"

 

On the hazy day of drugs cruel woe,

I wander, lost, in an endless flow.

Eyes once bright with a youthful gleam,

were dulled by shadows, lost in a dream.

 

Each passing day takes a heavy toll,

as the darkness swallows my once bright soul.

But in the depths of the darkest night,

a flicker of hope, casting a gentle light.

 

Within my heart, a fire was ignited,

hoping that the flame, my spirit was righted.

Through trials deep and battles fought,

I found the strength that time had sought.

 

I must rise above the foul depths below,

and let my spiritual inner light to grow.

Now, weathered by the storms of the past

I stand as victor, my will strong at last.

 

My scars are a testament to my constant fight

that bought me out of the darkest night.

My eyes now clear, my spirit free,

a beacon for all those who care to see.

 

That even in the depths of drugs and pain

there is still a chance to rise again.

So let this story be your guide

for those who walk with shadows wide.

 

That in the end,

the light will always shine,

and through the darkness,

hope, and an inner peace,

you are sure to find.
