Co-NNections Recovery Stories

Codependency…

 

………………………………………………..
Codependency

His sickness takes and takes
from this nightmare I must awake.

My focus has drifted unfortunately
I always watch him and forget about me.

I feel his anger,
I digest his pain,
as I watch my life becomes more insane.

My past and my future all seem a blur,
living with this demanding addiction
which I can not deter.

I love him, I hate him.
I wish I could save him.

But I tell myself, you see, the only one
that can save him is recovery,

Not me.

Lisa C. (1993)
