Wife of an Addict
3/27/2012

It feels as though an empty hole
has traded places with my soul
And though some offer helping hands
There is no one who understands

Well, there is one - just one - who knows
And feels the lowest of my lows
And He knows why I feel this way
I guess I will know too, someday

And maybe then, I'll be so strong
That I'll help others get along
this thorny path I now am treading
Which younger girls are only dreading

Or even may be unaware
of how this problem's everywhere
And so they'll be as unprepared
as I was, that first day he shared
