A Tiny Wish

When I go and look at myself

I start to wish I had all the worlds’ wealth

But I began to realize that in my addiction

All I was wishing for was death and dereliction

To commit suicide would be a sin

To fight the battle of addiction I will never win

To fight the battle, I can’t do it alone

So whenever in need, I pick up the phone

And call someone to help show me the way

To fight this battle whenever I’m in pain

Now I wish just for recovery

The chemicals I’ve used, my God, what a variety

I thank my God for giving me strength and power

‘Cause the more I used, the more my life was devoured

To be clean is all I wish and my addiction to be demolished

So higher Power, help me with this

And please grant me this one tiny wish
