I Am Free Poem by Rhonda Moody

I am Free / follow up from poem From the outside looking in
By: Rhonda Moody

Wow was my thought as I read the words
from a poem I wrote so my voice would be heard
I do not recognize the person I was then
Thank you Jesus for healing me within

My mind doing more than playing tricks I see
caught up in the prescriptions made a zombie of me
I was in pain so I would take a pill my doc prescribed
the symptoms it caused made me need another kind

One became two then three, Im not done
Keep on going thirteen is the one
Thirteen prescriptions the doctor had me on
its no wonder back then my hope was gone

Reading my poem opened my eyes
to my thoughts of depression and even suicide
This was not me not the person I am
How did I get that way, was it always the plan

I was trapped in the whirlwind of Prescriptions
an innocent cure for me became a dependence
I took a drug for one thing it caused me to need another
my world upside down, my life in a blunder

Morphine, Adderal, and anti depressants
just three of the drugs I needed to function
Fybromyalgia, diabetes, neurological disorders
just a few diagnosis per doctors orders

I am happy to say I am off all those meds
not by my will but God's will instead
my symptoms disappearing feeling healthy again
all thanks to God I feel whole again

I have a new Doctor he knows of my past
he seems to not abuse his authority with the prescription pad
If you take anything from what you just read
know that drugs made to heal you
might kill you instead
