Sweet Melissa: Caged, But Free - Paperback

by Susan Segovia-Munoz (Author)

Star light - Star bright - First star I see tonight - I wish I may - I wish I might. Well, you know how the saying goes, and it was going to take a lot more than a wish upon a star to change my life.Was I destined to live the rest of my life as a hopeless junkie? Every night before I went to sleep - that is if I had a place to sleep - I prayed that I wouldn't wake up - that I would die. I wondered why I had survived so long in the first place. I never thought that I would make it through my twenties, and at this point I was almost forty. How much more can I endure? And do I really want to live through another day of defeat? I've been a hardcore junkie for many years and I know I'll never stop using heroin or any other street drug. I love to get high - point blank. I will probably overdose again and my body will be found in the gutter somewhere in Downtown Los Angeles.
