Chasing the dragon, an agonizing fight,

Living in sin, a world without light.

I walked through the world, a ghost among men,

Convinced that I’d never taste freedom again.

Life felt like echoes in an empty hall,

A puzzle missing pieces, a 10 story fall.

Colors around me, muted and dark,

Until I met the girl with the gypsy heart.

Blind to the world, yet still, she could see,

Beyond all my flaws, she loved me for me.

In a world of darkness, her love was my light,

The spark in my soul, my reason to fight.

Addiction had left us both beaten and battered,

But together, we managed to mend what was shattered.

With the war finally over, United we stand,

Sober and free, with the world in our hands.

I see my future, my purpose, in her eyes,

For her, I am a warrior, I’ll protect her till I die.

And deep within my heart, I know our journey’s just begun,

But I’ll keep the door shut tightly, might the monsters come.
