Vicissitude
Dividing the lines that are indistinguishable and blurred,
Separating realities, looking for a cure,
Mending the inequities,
That have made my heart impure.
Contradicting visions, cloud my mind,
Opening avenues to help define,
Indiscriminate thoughts I won't resign,
Heart and soul, together align.
To myself, I'll always be true,
Lanes open, down a new avenue,
Life now shining a brighter hue,
Troubles now are but a few.
Tossing away associates, relying on Friends,
Impure thoughts, my mind tries to bend,
Battling sobriety, I'll always fend,
Making life better, there's a means to the end.
So moving forward, I will not rest
Giving him to thoughts that I detest,
Tossing impure emotions, that I have best,
Staying sober in this never-ending quest.
