One Day At a Time

I’m still alive Though not intact I strive and strive To stay on track I try, I fail I try again I need to heal It never ends The coarse was set With little wind My sails a net It’s hard to win LIke a tattoo One stain at a time What I’ve accrued Is pain in my prime I work what I got With smiles and grins I want to give up But fight giving in So on I’ll go One day at a time I’ll go on to Life’s finish line

I like this one a lot, especially like the analogy of the sail is a net
