In the case of Me versus Addiction

I'd love to know       
what scared me so much        
about myself         
         
to have ended up        
parked in a lay-by        
chasing my life away        
         
God knows I was on top         
of the world        
         
thought I had it beat         
some poems back        
         
but in the end        
my mind wasn't with it      
        
took weeks      
for it to catch up        
         
and I'd love to tell you        
'bout how much hell turkey was        
but I honestly don't remember        
the worst of it    
this time         
         
couldn't even tell you        
how long it's been         
         
I can tell you this though        
         
I never hit rock bottom         
'til I came off it
