I saw a reflection,but not of me,there was no mirror
It was a thought,then a feeling,frozen in a moment i was looking into
Gratitude,what an amazing thing it is to be alive,right here,right now
My story is what got me here,even as i went outside the lines,they still all straightened out
I used to use needles to avoid the truth of my actions,allowed them to slowly suck away all of my passion
I would paint smiles on my face with a blood stained paint of illusion
But i could never fool myself,i always knew if i didnt change i would never be more then a dead man walkin
I had soulless eyes syncing in harmony with my death rattle of a heart beat

My thinking was polluted with of visions darkness and rage,i was locked up in my homicidal cage of a mind
No freedom,a hope to die dope fiend waiting for my soul to pass judgement on my spirit
Guilty as charged,i was where the darkness ran to,i couldnt escape myself
I didnt just dance with the devil,i ran him out of hell,it was mine alone,there wasnt enough room for the both of us

As i crawled out of oblivion,into the world of the living,my darkness died in the light of exposure
I saw the truth of my dilemma for the first time,and it couldnt have been more clear
My dilemma was me,i thought i was an unsolvable puzzle,i stop trying to solve myself
I took action and instead helped all of you save myself
It takes a family to raise an addict,especially back from the dead
i have risen.but not from the grave,just above all influence
Past all that darkness,above all that rage
In this moment i let it all go
And i watched as it all faded away
Thats what has changed,not what im seeing,but how i allow myself to see things..............

Brilliant work of art :clap:

The images which I saw, the words how you used them, simply made me see a journey which started in darkness and led me towards the brightness. I see you overcome an obstacle in your life.
