How Did I End Up Here!

Have you ever tell yourself you want to have a little fun? For me, that's how it all began.

I dabbled with lines and, of course, we all drank, smoked some weed, done anything I think. Hung out with those who I thought were friends thinking it was fun to break from my worries sometime for #1. A party here, a party there. No problems, disappointments, or cares.

Some things changed though, I don't know when. What was once fun became only sin. One wasn't ever enough for me nor had it even come close. Forgetting others, spending time focusing on one thing. Not remembering the ones I loved. Days became weeks and weeks became months. Now I've been gone years, and those I'll never get back. I was lost in a never-ending cycle of fears and regrets. I lost all hopes, dreams, and aspirations. I fear even the grave. Just because of the new friends that I made.

One day, if I am lucky, here's what you'll see: a new and clean version of me. When all the smoke finally clears and I'm free of these chains.

It's not hard to see how I ended up here. When I look back, it wasn't really so much fun, really, after all. And especially not HERE!
