Hero;in Addiction (cont)

Do you know how it feels to watch someone fade away -before your blind eyes?


A slow, painful, drawn out toxic demise


Yet the reality was less than a year for our hero;in addiction


Caught totally unawares, by surprise




The insidious poison spread rapidly - darkness became a reprise




For in the dark, there are no shadows


No corners for monsters to lurk


There are only euphoric opiate dreams


Warm rush, reality shurk




Clammy and cold when awoken


Harsh cruel words spoken


Demonic powers stronger than ever


Our hero, likely to win ; never




An unlikely ally in this tale of woe


Fluctuates between friend and foe


Enabler , constrictor, dictoral big sister


Hypocritical emotionally unstable reminiscer




Guilt and blame, peppered with shame


The hero did save her once or twice


With efficient humility - fame was not his game


And her vulnerability, weaknesses he never did name




Yet save our hero;in addiction she could not
