Dear My Ex-Best-Friend...
Dear my ex-best-friend,
I'm sorry to leave you all alone,
I know the feeling well.
You tried your hardest to stay close,
And i commend your efforts.
You kept me warm on cold nights,
Made me better when i was sick,
YOu were always there when i needed you,
And you always made me feel beautiful.
I'm grateful for our time together,
But there needs to be an end.
I have new friends now,
Not just a crutch from independance.
My body is ravaged, scarred and diseased,
Because we had our bad times, too, baby.
So, again, my ex-best-friend,
You'll find someone new,
Time and time again.
Worry not, I'll never forget you.*
A small note to sweet heroin, my ex-best-friend, my one true love and the only thing in my life that made me realize that things needed to change. Although i hated her for the majority of the time that we were together, i can only thank her for aiding in bringing me so low that i couldn't go anywhere else but up.
Adieu, adieu, adieu.
Powerful stuff, Robyn.
Thank you very much robyn,
I'm about to go down town, tomorow perhaps?
I'm glad i was clean of my addiction today.
Such a wonderful day for me caus' I could meet many of my friends clean and sober and many of them had many problems with there addictions in the pass.

Take care then . Take all the time that you need to gain in healt and to restore mind of very long nigh of a crazy leaving .
Is that right ?
Thank you for taking the risk and writing this awesome poem. Everything you said in this is so true. She shot straight from the heart and experience. I hope in the days and years to come you do remember this time. It is when we forget and start discredit or glorify our experiences then we become more of a risk and anger to ourselves. I say keep on writing and sharing. This will help keep you from reconnecting with miss herion.
Take the risk
Straight from - and to - the heart.
Great stuff, Robyn.
Take pride in what you've done for yourself in moving beyond... and what you've done for others in posting this.
... and keep moving forward.
