Addictions

5/21/17



It's no wonder there's been unsteady employment
So many poor choices
Not helping my body with poison
At only myself the finger should be pointed
As to why any part of my life went down the toilet
Need to focus more on the voyage
And enjoy it, instead of that being avoided

To put it plainly
Lately
I've been feeling strangely
Trying to improve greatly
Daily
In areas sunny and shady

Despite all the bad decisions
From being unable to control addictions
Never been a follower of any religion
But always tried to listen
With some optimism, when wisdom
And advice was given

Across the sphere
Doesn't matter if I'm looked at as weird
Just trying to persevere
And think more clear
For as long as I'm here
Even if it isn't another year
And I suddenly disappear

Cheers
May you all have successful careers
