Child of the One True King
Hello my name is Alysandra
I am into drug and I'm a drug addict
I used to beg go at things
Like soccer, golf, and basket ball
I was injured
I tore my ACL
The doctor gave me medicine
And that's when I turned to drugs
They made me happy
I couldn't do anything I lived after failing three drug tests
I was kicked out of school
Then I was sent to rehab
I cried and cried when my parents left me there
I thought they loved me more that to send me through a hell hole
But they loved me so much that they didn't want to see me suffer
While I was there I turned to self harm
I cut
I was so lonely that I turned to that
I got mental and physical therapy
I got better and could go home
I love the life I'm living now
It's been a year since therapy
I no longer introduce myself as a self harming drug addict
I now introduce myself as
"Hi I'm Alysandra"
I am child of the one true king
And I'm loving it
