Turn Away From The Dark...Before It Consumes You

Substance abusers always get clean, then turn to drugs once more.
Alcoholics always get sober, then drown their sorrows by getting drunk once again.
Mentally ill people forget the monsters, then scream at night because they see them unexpectedly.
I was strong and got better, then I felt my walls rise up; isolating me with one friend I hoped to never see again...my exacto knife.
