Intervention

The power that you hold is stronger than my own.
You are the great divide between the actions that I’ve sewn.

How did I let you in you creep just like a snake.
My life is set aside for these drugs I must take.

If only for a moment you take me from this place.
I give you all my power to free me from disgrace.

A solitary world the days turn into years.
The lines I see before me exposing all my fears.

To find a higher ground where I can spread my wings.
This is my only option if I'm to do great things.

Now is my intervention and there’s power on my side.
These comrades in my life won’t let me go without a fight!

I don’t have a drug problem if you are wondering. I wrote this after watching the show “Intervention” on A&E. This is a reality show that follows a person who is addicted to alcohol or drugs. You can see the horrible affect that this addiction has on their life. These people are usually on the edge of death and must have an intervention from loved ones to save them. But with all that the family does to help, it’s ultimately up to them to change their life.
