Let's Get Sober

As I come to terms with myself Through many years of pain It really sounded like fun at the time But now it seems Insane Along with? age comes wisdom Down to the very core Though I never believed it Thought it all folklore From the school of hard knocks Dad said I'd never learn Life was one big party The end not a concern But I proved him wrong In all that he said I sorted through my problems By using my head Now clean and sober My world no longer grey I'm trying to help people Through the things I say So take this to heart In the world that is yours Use your mind in a way That will open closed doors

Thank you so much Elizabeth, I have about a hundred poems that I was going to try and get published, but it's just easier to put them here. You're very generous with your comments, I hope people continue to be inspired by my poems as well as I hope to help people change their lives. Thank you and God bless you
