Addicted
————————–
Lonely, depressed, in the corner of her mind
She sits desolate head deeply bent in anguish
Surrounded by the remnants of her recent past
Her family long since gone from her life
Where can she turn, she is drowning in self pity
No friends come knocking on her hall door
Laughter and toys missing from the playroom floor
Where did it all go wrong, confused, she rocks
She had promised to stop in a whispering cry
The bottles hidden in every corner, tempting
Shaking she needed the courage to go on
But now all is lost, the terrible cost
Of an alcohol addiction.
