Pills & Verses Pt. 3: Awakening

Forty eight hours later Jack awakened from his coma
his nostrils were met by the foul, unpleasant aroma
of a man who smelled of fresh coffee and cigarettes
sitting beside his bed writing away all of his stress
Jack asked him who he was so he introduced himself
said his name was Seamus and thought he could help
Seamus passed Jack a cup of coffee to relieve his headache
then he showed him a poem of which he could easily relate
Jack read this poem and it made him shed quite a few tears
the words hit him pretty hard kidnapping his soul with fear
Seamus said 'Keep this up and this eventually could happen to you.'
'I'm a former addict myself so I know the pain you're going through.'
'Look I'm just hear because I want to be your friend and your mentor.'
'That's why I have enrolled you into a special drug treatment center.'
'Jack it was obvious that you were gonna die had I not intervened
but I'd be happy to assist you as long as you're willing to get clean
