Alive Today

Alive Today 30/04/2018 Now in remission from my state of addiction, When my mind was in a place of relentless sedition. A life free from pain was my ultimate ambition, Now though I’m happy with a little daily contrition. Blind to the effect of my pernicious affect, Not once did I muse on my actions and reflect. Content with my ignorance all blame I’d deflect, Close off my heart as a mechanism to protect. I’m alive today and it’s a conscious decision. No longer a smelly, dirty object of derision. Today I’m reducing my pain Meds with precision. Not wanting a repeat of my bodies demolition. Power of will, power of mind, No better medication you’ll find. I have a mantra - hard work and determination. Push went you can’t, love because you can. Look inside, your souls examination, Look above, your creator has a plan
