Two years for me today
So I thought I'd stop by to say
Thanks to all my limerick friends
For being here along the way
It's amazing to look back
Drinking, I didn't know what my life lacked
I was stuck in a deep, dark place
With only a fake smile to grace my face
I couldn't figure out what was wrong
Or why I'd felt bad for so long
Where did I make the wrong turn?
Why did the daylight seem to burn?
It wasn't until I quit
That I began to understand a little bit
The drink and drugs weren't the cure
They weren't my friends but my abusers
So many things I didn't think were linked
To the drugs and the drink
$hit in my life piled in mounds
Suddenly started to turn around
Now with my life today
It's hard to believe there's a way
That the person I was at my low
Is the person that I am now
(I know, that last part doesn't rhyme at all, but it looks like it should!)
