dear demon

Dear demon,

For years you have hidden inside me. I thought you were me. But now I see you. You have a face, and you have a name.

I am strong in body, and in mind, but my spirit is tattered because of your exploits. The strength you've allowed conceals you. From your hiding place, you've harvested wisps of my hidden doubts and planted them on my windowsill.

You've danced with me, every step to your tune. It's not an honest battle
as I would prefer, but a waltz. Intoxicating and spell-binding. You soften me, then approach me from the side so very gracefully, with notions on a platter, presenting them as my choice. You let me choose so that I am the one to blame.

I now see you. I know you tactics. I recognize your voice. Your days are numbered.

Reminds me of my farewell letter to alcohol.
Taking the power away from it is what it's all about.
Beautiful writing tenK!

I am you disease

Hello, I am your Disease
I Hate meetings...I Hate higher powers...I Hate anyone who has a program. To all who come in contact with me, I wish you death and I wish you suffering. Allow me to introduce myself, I am the disease of addiction. I Am cunning, baffling, and powerful. That's Me. I have killed millions and I am pleased.
I love to catch you with the element of suprise. I love pretending I am your friend and lover. I have given you comfort, haven't I? Wasn't I there when you were lonely? When you wanted to die, didn't you call on me? I was there, I love to make you hurt. I love to make you cry. Better yet, I Love to make you so numb you can neither hurt nor cry. When you can't feel anything at all. This is true gratification. And all that I ask from you is long term suffering. I've been there for you always.

When things were going right in your life, you invited me. You said you didn't deserve these good things, and I was the only one who would agree with you. Together we were able to destroy all the good things in your life. People don't take me seriously. They take strokes seriously, heart attacks, even diabetes, they take seriously. Fools. Without my help these things would not be possible. I am such a hated disease, and yet I do not come uninvited. You choose to have me. So many have chosen me over reality and peace.

More than you hate me, I hate all of you who have a 12 step program. Your program, Your meeting, Your higher power. All of these things weaken me, and I can't function in the manner I am accustomed to. Now I must lie here quietly. You don't see me but I am growing bigger than ever. When you only exist, I may live. When you live I may only exist. But I am here...

And until we meet again, If we meet again, I wish you death and suffering.
