Anchor at sea

My Anchor

For so many years
my addiction anchored me
when everything was rough around me
It kept me alive
when I wanted to die
My addiction was there
when I needed an arm to hold me tide
I was grounded at my core
Even though I were strangled in my mind
I felt secure, I felt free
Now I am no longer bound by my fear
I cried and I screamed
But my Anchor holds me stable in a time of need
I did not sleep
cause fear surrounded me
but now I am secure and free
I’ll loosen the rope that holds me tide
But I can be secure and free
I need to feel the storm
the waves that are crashing in on me
I need to let myself be
It’s hard but I am free
I’ll be okay, I am free
Tears are as many as the sea
But it is cleansing me
My Anchor hanging lose
The waves are smashing in
I know I will be fine
It is rough but I am strong
I look at the storm
and know,
I’m okay for now!
