Albert Rosebruch Poem
Lost and alone in habits so dark,
Trying to move forward but stuck in park,
Blinded by temptations and evil desires,
Always falling short of what was required,
Caring about no one, only myself,
Refusing to believe that I needed help,
Drinking myself to sleep every night,
How will I ever come out of this darkness and into the light?
Neglecting my family and breaking their hearts,
Not even realizing my life was falling apart,
Breaking the law and ruining my name,
Playing with life as if it were a game,
Killing myself slowly, wishing I would just die,
My heart so cold now that I can’t even cry,
My plans and dreams pulling out of sight,
How will I ever come out of this darkness and into the light?
Sinking deeper and deeper into this dark hole,
Desperately searching for someone to save my lost soul,
Losing all the people that are closest to me,
I now know I need help can God be the key,
How can I be chosen, who am I,
Just another addict that wanted to die,
Taking a hold of me with a grip so tight,
Have I finally found the way out of the darkness and into the light?
Being delivered from all my evil ways,
Wanting to live for many more days,
When I am hurt He is there to heal my wounds,
Singing Him praises to my new favorite tunes,
Although I was lost, I am now found,
Never again to be pulled back down,
I was once blinded, but now I have sight,
I am out of the darkness and have found the Light!

Albert Rosebruch Poem
I’m so high on life, I’m higher than the moon,
It’s no longer mind-altering substances that I consume,
I keep my feet on this straight and narrow path,
Saving my life from its downhill destructive wrath,
It’s times like these where I’ve seen brighter days,
I wake up thankful now, giving God all of my praise,
As I look back on my life, on my darkest hour,
Sober now, I see I was living my life as a coward,
I’ve done some rotten things, I’ve made some bad mistakes,
But when the time comes for me to make amends I’ll do whatever it takes,
I’m sober now, I would’ve never imagined,
That something as good as this could ever have happened,
One day at a time, simple yet so profound,
If I live my life by this, I will not be brought back down,
I’ve been through more than enough and have no regrets,
I will never put down my recovery to experience my yets,
Like I have yet to use a needle or have yet to gone to prison,
Been in jail for a few nights that’s where God gave me this vision,
That if I get clean, I have a story that needs to be told,
To encourage that next addict to get clean before his life unfolds,
Staying clean it is so simple yet it is truly hard,
But now I can reach for my dreams instead of becoming falling star,
I think about what I wanted to be before my addiction
A liar, cheat, and thief, this was not my prediction,
But life is better now, I’m headed in the right direction,
I fear no evil now that I know I have God’s protection,
I truly live each day as if it were my last,
Proud of the man I’ve become and thankful for my past,
Times still do get tough, life is never perfect,
But I know longer have to alter my mind to see that life is worth it,
So I make this commitment, I will give recovery my all,
And reach for those stars as I hold my head up high and stand up tall!

Albert Rosebruch Poem
this is my sober livin lifestyle..and im so sorry that ive being gone for awhile,
i will overcome all of my trials,
got my sponsor on speed dial.
ha my life used to be a big joke,
drinking and druging until the Lord spoke,
He told me to go to a meeting a day and listen and hear what the people have to say
it was their words but my story so i can relate,
they didnt reject me there was no debate,
have i finally found my way home,
theres others, I am not alone,
my name is al and im an alcoholic i admit it,
but im getting clean now so when i die i can say i did it,
looking back at my life and all the things that i thought were fun,
are the very same things that got me on the run,
this is my sober livin lifestyle,
and im so sorry that ive been gone for awhile,
nowadays i wake up each morning eager to see what awaits,
i get on my knees and thank god for givin me this place,
get a sponsor they told me, its the first thing i should do,
and keep coming to meetings and share what ive been through,
wow the weight lifted off of my chest take a step back and take a breath,
im being clensed into the brand new me,
hands in the air i am free

Albert Rosebruch Poem
I look up at the sky..
I thank god for bringing back the tears to my eyes..
And now once again…
Im feeling these emotions that I can express with a pen…
I sit and I write..
Finally knowing and believing I have support in this life…
Ive been blind for too long…
Im finally opening up my eyes as im writing this song…
Im not alone…
In the rooms of recovery is where I found my new home…
Now I have hope…
That my life will get better as I put down the dope…
Now I have a chance to make all my wrongs right…
Ive changed my circumstance in order to better my life…
I feel so alive…
And from now on in this world I am determined to thrive…
I thank the Lord…
And I say thank you to all the people who showed me their support
