Dedicated to my sister in recovery, Genesis…
The book of genesis is full of hard won battles
Successes and failures
Trials that persist until the end of times
The road to recovery is like the exodus to the land of milk and honey
Only those who persist in doing what is right can make it to the promised land
But when we reject that thing called love
And degrade ourselves and others
We become willing slaves
Exiles in the land of the lost and depraved
Cast out into the wilderness
An abode of temptation
Everywhere we go is everywhere we are
No defense against the wiles of the devil
He tells us we’re not worthy
But he’ll give us what we need
Nobody loves is like he do
His love will set us free
Much like an abusive lover
He claims we can’t live without him
And much like the abused
We keep running back
And time again
But when Lord?
When will it end?
Only you can say when it’s over
Only you can right your wrongs
Only you can straighten your crooked path
Only you can stray from the dark
So put on your coat of armor
Seek love with all your heart
Sharpen up your two-edged sword
And fight the holy war
