Back Bone

by believeinlove87   Oct 25, 2011


Let me be your backbone,
keep you standing tall,
put all your strength onto me,
I'll never let you fall,
alone you'll never conquer this
addiction.

Two is better then one,
I watched my mom die with hers,
I won't abandon you too,
open up your eyes,
let me in, together this will
be all over.

Don't you see how much
you mean to me?
Knowing your back on drugs
is killing me,
You're by yourself, have nobody there,
when I'm right here ready to be
there through thick & thin.

I refuse to see you in a coffin,
you're amazing, charming & everything,
nothing I would change,
Boy, you have my heart & soul,
let me be your backbone,
before you hit rock bottom.

Together we will conquer this,
alone you will dig yourself a deeper grave,
You'll never lose me, Forever by your side,
you have my heart,
& i have yours,
so together lets beat this nasty
addiction.

-This was written about my ex, whom now is out of my life. Doesn't deserve me in his.-

    Hey Holly,

    I really loved this poem. I started to get emotional reading each line.

    Let me be your backbone,
    keep you standing tall,
    put all your strength onto me,
    I'll never let you fall,
    alone you'll never conquer this
    addiction.
    ^^^^^

    I love this stanza. The words are so strong and at this point you can already feel exactly what the poem is about and the meaning behind it.

    I felt even more emotional reading the part where you mother had gone through this as well (So very sorry)

    I have to say that there are so many people out there going through things alone - this poem shows that there are people willing to stick by you no matter what.

    I loved it!

    Awesome poem on how addictions can be more powerful than the love of someone

    My favorite line is the bottom comment, "doesnt deserve me in his"

    Every decision has consequences and no one in a relationship should be second choice to anything

    great series of writing and great poem I enjoyed it greatly :0)

    I found it a poem to be read by anyone addicted to anything. I commend you for this effort to help someone and for the power and strength you enclosed in words that flowed with brilliance
