You fought the good fight
And you thought you won all of the battles
That left you here
The armor your wore and the shield you held up
Didn’t matter
You still live in fear

So where does this leave you
Where does this stop
Where do you go from here

Just, look to tomorrow
Look straight ahead
Don’t be discouraged
Don’t let them win
There’s no use in crying
It’s not the end
Don’t listen to those
Monsters in your head

Darkness is setting in
You’re giving way to the voices
Believing them now
All of the goodness that once lived inside
Now is haunted
Can’t find it’s way out

So where does this leave you
Where does it stop
Where do you go from here

– Kari Kimmel

To all addicts reading this:  Where you go from here is help.  Where you go from here is hope.  New beginnings are always possible.  Your monsters will go away, I promise.
