DENIALS PLEDGE
Many ropes sway in the water
across the river
I only testify
I’m not a giver
of the rope which is hope
for those that think nope
there’s no other way
i’m not here to barter or sway
I have no control over the day
or how anyone responds to it
I can only encourage you to GO through it
Go to a meetings and bare your soul
alcoholism is a troll
that whisper in our minds ear
shot after shot beer after beer
depression mixed messages and PTSD
a cycle of misery that keeps us dizzy
self doubt and self hate is a cape that stays draped
over our face that’s keeps us tripping and running into buildings
feeling stupid cussing our selves and misreading our feelings
Honesty, Openmindeness, and willingness
even if you’re not feeling this
are 3 rungs on a ladder to safety
you just have to be willing to face the demon within
that’s not a demon at alll
just a lie we believed
that’s all.
Meetings helps us find our way back
we just have to get off the track
thats has us looping in circles of self will
trying to do both
drink and get well keeps us ill
I truly hope you grab the rope
two hands full
good orderly directions,
surrender
let it go
keep it simple
because DENIAL is an infinite ripple
if we continue to lie to ourselves
