Recovery
She carries this burden; a weight
For all those times she stayed away
Caught up in the game; With no escape
Pray to God to just let her wake
Open her eyes to see
That you are her seed
She brought you here; but why
To watch her shoot up and die
To place you in a room
Where her highs were consumed
Arms all bruised
Why does she use
Day after day, she rots away
Heart decayed
She needs a change
So she stood tall
Fall after fall
Took her life back
So you would never lack
Her love, anymore
She got up off that floor
She’s here to stay
Every single day
From here on out
So please never doubt
Her love is unbelievably true
So never forget that her heart beats for you.
