That opening is so on point. I’ve said many times that I didn’t want to live, but I didn’t want to die, so using was my only option.
This is quite literally the most accurate and well written piece of literature I've ever seen or heard. Its inspirational and devastating, beautiful and sad, simple and clear yet impossible to accept and deny all at once. This hits me so hard on an emotional level because although I agree entirely, somehow I can only manage to apply it to advice I've given to the loved ones who are in the same boat as me.. Which I've pretended isn't sinking.
I am an addictions counselor and played this for my group clients. This perfectly sums up how they are feeling. Thank you for sharing your craft with us!
More councilors should show this. Good on you
The connections between different metaphors were mind blowing. He truly thinks outside of the box. I can't say no more except this is beautiful to listen to.
That is so crazy, i loved every second.. but the last bit hit me hardest.. i was only listening to amazing grace earlier today and that verse has always resonated with me the most!! 💯 thank you 🤝🏼💪🏽
This is the perfect description of being an addict. So damned powerful
Cheers, Alex - Glad you found it impactful.
Fellow South African speaker. Thank you for this piece.
That was truly beautiful! Thank you for sharing
This gave me shivers...just amazing!
I have no words...
Truer words have never been spoken. Thank you my friend.
So relatable. I have an addiction. I'm not taking, im not swallowing or injecting or smoking. Infact its in my head and im not addicted to a substance im addicted to a human. She is always there and she doesnt want to leave. She has two lives her real life and then the life inside ny head.. living with me every second of every day.
Your beautiful & I love your voice & the way you move those words from your tongue & out of your mouth!!!! I'm in recovery for 5 years! & I love writing poems about strength, & courage!!! We do SURVIVE!!
+TheNJGirl22 Thank you very much! - Kurt

Where can I find the written version of this?
now when he says "I know *him* well" Who do you think he's talking about? Himself or a deity?
Mercurial Definitely not himself ;)
I'm an ex-addict and I can't find ONE ex-addict that did it without belief in a deity. I'm alone with this. I did it without belief in a deity.
@@ther6989 did you believe in your highest power?
wait so what is his addection
does anyone know where i can find the written form
Hi! You can find the lyrics to this poem on my blog, www.mywordsinprogress.wordpress.com - Kurt
+Emote Record Company thank you but the lyrics seem a bit off
+Najma Kulmie Each performance will be unique because sometimes I emphasize differently or freestyle in between. It is what it is. - Kurt
amazing poetry but it is a disease my brain scans and spinal cord fluids showed markers that weren't supposed to be there bc abuse at an early age changed the very structure of my brain. I fought within myself for a long time that it is a disease and it was one put onto me.
