Tired of handing out apologies
& trying to make things right
Typing gibberish on technology
While I'm blacked out at night
I cannot stand who I've become
Making enemies each & every day
How do I return to where I'm from
When I'm filled with such dismay
Building up so many regrets &
Making enemies along the way
Why am I so fucked up now
When I was once just happy & gay
I live to please
That's who I am
But these days I find
Myself in a jam
I'm out of control
Getting sick all the time
It's clear these days
I'm long past my prime
I fear my fate
Has an end near in sight
Which makes me sad
My future was once so bright
Time to put myself first
Quit partying to live
Tired of drowning my thirst
& begging people to forgive
Moving on ain't easy
But it's a necessity for me
Gotta minimize the voices
To start making better choices
I'm scared of what I'll lose
But look forward to what I'll gain
By cutting out the booze
& resetting my brain
Must forget about society
& focus on sobriety
A new journey starts now
To my old life I say, "ciao"

PoetryA continuation of poetry similar to that in my first self-published novel. I will slowly begin adding some newer things from the past few years since I published the first book.
