“My Fix” is a raw and introspective poem that delves into the depths of the poet’s soul, exploring themes of darkness, isolation, and the healing power of writing. Through vivid imagery and honest vulnerability, the author shares their personal struggle and search for solace.
My Fix
Darkness lurks inside my mind
If I’m not careful I’ll go blind
It tries to change my heart to stone
In times like this I’m best alone
I lay awake in bed at night
And pray to God to send me light
So I can write with pen in hand
And spread His love across the land
I watch these veins with blood so blue
Bleed crimson words for all of you
With each poem I find some peace
And in my mind the darkness cease
David Ritter

BOTTLED MEMORIES
These stand-alone poems were written over many years. While individually they describe the conflicts associated with alcoholism, when read together they reveal a more complete picture of the destruction, depression, and chaos of addiction, as well as the peace, hope, and joy of recovery. Although most of these poems pertain to my life, it is my hope that other people will relate to them also. It’s not only my story but the story of so many others.
