Back then

In the past we didn’t have a smart phone
Things were done that little bit slower and a bit more grace
Now we speed up and fall on our face.

Back then we took our time
We spoke that little bit  slower,
You didn’t need to go at speed
Now we rely on our phones… an element of our needs.

People are now far more impatient 
They talk a good talk but don’t follow it through,
That doesn’t apply to every one, just like the methodical ones… which is myself and you.

Today we are too fast
The speed of talking is quite intense,
We are desensitised to surroundings 
Where in the past we stopped, looked and reflected 
A moment to contemplate the next move which will soon be detected.

Recovery

It’s a road no one can ever anticipate It starts with a drink and then you are waning and then often inebriated.   The journey is long, yet ...
