Trying.. simply try

​We try our best, and give it a go,
Sometimes you do not understand what you are doing,
As you go exceptionally fast, 
Mistakes do happen and the result is rather harsh.

We will try our best,
That is obvious for most of us here, 
I know that when you are low, you looking to avoid the treacherous fear. 

We are willing
We are aiming to do our best, 
We pray for a better outcome, yet the decision is left with God who puts your mind and heart at rest.

We encourage and love 
We embrace and learn to stay in the present today,
I know that all we have is another chance to do something else….and never go away.

Everything is temporary

​All things are temporary 
All things have there moment that awake, 
I know that I am too broken, so I am ready to restart and re-make.

All things can be an initial shudder
The mind will shift and it’s hard to fathom,
Take your time, it shall be okay
Just be in the present, most things are random.

We are temporary ourselves, 
So go out other and stop procrastinating, 
Some people are into praying 
Others are into gossip and debate,
It’s only through our higher power that each of us shall see our humble fate. 

I pray for you to have a beautiful life
Despite the slips it may bring,
If I had to speak to my younger self I would have drank less alcohol, avoid gossip.. as I know God eventually removed that sin. 😉

Col and Max ❤️

​An angel meets another angel
What else can I say, 
I pray for these souls to work and pray they go all the way.

They are blessed with love, banter, chaos and peace,
They are wonderful together, God has protected them at the very least.

Max with her angelic voice 
Col with this graft and gracious charm,
As this is a world not too far away, 
As God has these two to keep in sight
May the heavens open and possess a glorious light.

Col and Max may the spirit within show you what’s insight,
Take today, this present moment in time
As the essence of this path is spiritually divine.

This life..

​This life can be interesting,
On the journey you are about to face,
You don’t know what’s around the corner, sometimes you do or don’t tend to embrace. 

This life can lead to gossip,
Talking to discuss the latest issues going on,
It’s the people who remain and learn, is to be in a place where you do belong. 

I rather be still
And sometimes say nothing at all,
My peace is my comfort, always chatting isn’t for me, 
Have faith in you and others, the truth shall set you free. 

It’s about the art of patience,
It’s the art of loving yourself and others too, 
A frown pulls 28 muscles and a grin to smile is simply 4,
Where there is hope, kindness, love and happiness.. plus there is plenty, plenty more in store.

Jason

What are you looking to risk?

​We may know a lot 
But what is the original idea to come up with regulation or law?
Is there something in the ether looking for something more.

It’s based on strategy
Placing people where they want them to be,
As more often than not the perception is difficult to see. 

Human nature leads us to be guided or do something exciting,
And that can lead to something ‘adrenaline like’ and often frightening.

It’s of course it is good to play it safe
Get your foundations in order and a humble safe space, 
But then again, your inner wanting to know comes into it.. so pray that is a humble and often enlightening place.

Nothing is forever

​certain things are not forever,
Healing in prayer can’t be seen as the ‘never never’.

Allow your spirit to lead 
You are a blessing for the utmost high,
The present is all you have so it isn’t a goodbye. 

Poems I write, is for us all
There is always a protection, to me? “I interpret that to be a higher call”.

For me? It’s sobriety
That’s my full time job,
Seeing people for connection through a drink, 
is hard for me to do.. that’s what I think! 
I now I have today
What can I do with it to make it work,
People’s issues are left with their higher power, so from there I’ll continue to say ‘nothing is forever”, these words I shall disperse.

The person I fell in love with

​I love you
It’s as simple as that,
God brought us together,
I am now in Birmingham and you are in London… as that won’t stay like that forever.

I love you Ruth 
It’s a great biblical book, 
A balance of God is inside us both
We want to excel in our Father… that’s never could be called a ‘won’t’. 

I love you Ruth 
You taught me how to love again,
God has brought us together, as I can now call you my best friend.

I love you Ruth 
Our talents can align,
As long we put God at the centre of it, we shall simply be just fine.

Work, rest and pray

​Today is a blessing because you are here,
Working is part of the nourishment 
Rest is the part not to get too weary,
Stop, reflect on the good times not everything has to be a theory.

Working is good for the mind
It gives you structure and purpose to grow,
Resting is the part of your when you need to take stock and learn to go slow. 

Praying is the motivation to keep you going on,
Praying can be a revelation and consequently shall lead your body, heart and soul to have a sense to belong. 

Work to provide
Rest to stay alive
Pray to your higher power to start anew,
Like the morning sun which brings calm, hope and all of the above.. which we already knew.

16 years

​16 years and fought the tears, 
Thank you for being there in my hour of need, a great man who guided me in the deception of drink,
You have spiritual lead qualities which did indeed made me think.

Well done
A birthday to saviour
A birthday to add the years to,
16 years sober
A champion in your own right and didn’t treat the fellowship as a loner. 

A good man 
A man worthy of respect, 
It’s only God he fears from the time he surrendered the devilish booze,
He has now reached a 16th birthday and prays a day at a time, never again to use.

Happy birthday Ronnie,
Your namesake is greatest snooker player ever,
In these circles of sobriety circles his head is light and soul blessed,
And most importantly of all is on a continual journey and shouldn’t settle for anything less.

“Happy 16th sobriety journey🙏🏽”

Out of the comfort zone

​stay cautious 
Stay humble and bright,
That is how you are seen, no need to stay in the fight.

Stay bright
Stay motivated and focused,
This world can be quite cunning at times, just like hocus-pocus.  

Stay being you 
The best version you seek to find,
And ultimately you remain humble and kind.

Look to the world
Never leave it in the way others who like to mayhem to surround,
It is the calling from your spirit to have found.

Transitioning

​change is important 
And often it’s a leap of faith, 
Going through this transition is so powerful and temporary,
It will be okay, and soon shall be exemplary.

Change is good, and change is strong, 
Rigidity is another ‘work in progress’
And not everyone gets to understand
But this change is powerful and a depth that shall mentally land.

Change is the leap of faith you seek to deploy, 
Staying in your comfort zone is what we all want,
But life puts you in a place where your higher power needs you to be
And that hope is what you shall eventually see.

Change is natural
Even though you feel you are forced,
I miss people being around the corner but that shall change, 
may your spirit hold onto each and everyone of you… now enter onto the next page.

Jason

You must try

​You must try
Heal and then grow, 
I remembered once I felt I had it all and life was simple 
What I awaits I was unprepared and lead me to feeble. 

You must try
and then take it day by day, 
The present is all we have, we say this in A.A. Meetings
It’s a soothing of hope as you’ll never be fleeting.

It will be okay
I know this journey isn’t forever, 
Things will happen, God shall step in 
Look after yourself, that isn’t sugar coated words at all,
Working through life can be humbling and no doubt you shall face struggles,
Praying is not questioning, that overthinking can lead you towards troubles. 

So try
Do not doubt, 
lead with the spirit, close your eyes and pray 
Trying pragmatically with God at hand
Nothing can harm you with a prayer…as I suggest pray and stand.

Happy birthday mummy D

​Happy birthday my beautiful friend
We met years ago; and from that moment we shared creative gifts we shared
I am thankful to God for her love and mercy which is declared.

A brilliant mother
And a determined child of God, 
A great friend who says: “you’ve got this”
And I say this to her as well
The prayers delivered are powerful, and ones to always tell. 

I am honoured to have you as my sister,
And pray for you to remain in my life for a long time,
You are priceless and great
And endureth child of God who never turns up late. 

Thank you Lord for this beautiful friend,
Another day
Another beautiful celebration
This is humility for a wonderful soul in tremendous admiration.

“Happy Birthday Deborah”

Kindness in a bottle

​One day you can turn your world upside down,
Or turn from down to the top
Learning is key and can never stop.

One day will make a difference 
One minute you are low 
The next you can be high
Learn to retreat and never say to ‘yourself’ a goodbye.

Love is king
Hope is following a higher power to love,
There is nothing in this world you should never shove.

Be calm with the spirit,
Look at the ways to progress your soul,
There is love always, just go to that place, where you shall perennially grow.

Jason

One day at a time

​One day at a time we need to see
We are all blessed with gifts, and sometimes that makes us controlled and free. 

One day at a time
I wnt this life to be part, 
Yet I am a emotional soul, 
I am sometimes do not know where to go. 

‘One day at a time 
I am humble and light, 
I have my ironing board out and ironing my clothes to keep me calm, 
I rather do that than cause any harm.

One day at a time I send you plenty of love to consume, 
As long you stay in the present and be open minded and never look to assume.

Taking the next step

​what’s the next step? 
When are you nice to you?
This is not psychoanalysis what to do.

So what is next?
Rest?
Think?
I pray you don’t pick up or have that drink!

One day can change a lot
Life turning events they call it 
And sometimes it is manifested bit by bit.

It will be okay 
For you and I,
Yes, we shall have our moments when uncertainty creeps in,
And that God is at hand, because he already achieved this win.

“We have today.. yes, so pray”

Sober today

​Thank you for me
Thank you for you, 
Today I am sober and for that I am thankful, 
I love the fellowship but I have a life too
We have this moment we seek to imbue. 

Tomorrow is tomorrow 
And if God says it’s okay to be around, 
I am blessed to have this moment with fellows, which is sound. 

Thank you for you
Thank you for me,
I know today is special and humbling 
I am no longer with a drink, and constantly stumbling. 

I am no longer blaming others for mistakes I’ve made, 
I am walking on this path of sobriety from a place which I once concede.

Enjoy what you have 
Enjoy what you do, 
And if you stay humble and sober, you can wake up, pray to God and ensue.

“Blessed and thankful as sober”

What I won’t miss

Catford, ​It’s been my home for over half a century,
So now I am mixing it up, and to myself that is what I use to say
Now I am leaving as this borough can’t accommodate me anymore, to allow me to stay. 

The place has changed
Drugs, alcohol which brings mental health to its heights 
To a point I am pleased to be leaving
Yet part of me wished they could help me… as I tried to keep believing.

Time for a change 
Pleased to finally leave, 
I have family here and been in this borough since 1977
I recall my secondary school, Catford Boys when I started going to when I was 11. 

I have a mixture of feelings 
I really don’t want to leave, 
But then again, this is a door opened, and a chance God didn’t deceive.

People said to fight to stay, 
But it was my time to go away, 
I rather be in a quiet part of England, and to be around somewhere new as I know all shall be okay.

“Lewisham has been my home since 1973, due to policy and housing crisis… I had to leave.”
Jason
20th August 2026

Wanting a change..

​Prayers do get answered
Yet love of others shall remain  unchanged,
This is a great thing for us all,
There will be challenges, and there shall be falls.

But change in inevitable 
Things don’t always stay the same, 
Tomorrow is a blessing from what we can see,
We all possess gifts and seek what we need.

Prayers are the answer
Believe that or not,
I choose not to argue with you, as I know my God is my ‘free will’ too,
Our anchor, our love and our hope in our walk with me and you. 

So prayers shall be answered if required by God,
There is hope and a desire to see you okay,
As remember this (and I’ve said this before)… it shall be okay.🙏🏽

Thinking and thinking

​We can over think, 
I think most of us do, 
Especially when there is change
And you are wondering how your mind shall rearrange.

We can over think
I know that I do, 
My mind is working out the next step
Thinking, plotting and working it out
And praying that God will intervene to do what I want to go about. 

We can overthink
We can do it to excess, 
Looking for opportunities, when perhaps you need to let things go
No need to overthink, as you need to leave the mind alone. 

We can overthink 
What choice do we have, 
Especially when the head is feeling the heat
And that the God of your understanding withstands any of his children’s facing defeat.

“Over thinking”

Thank you my friend.

​Thank you for your time 
Thank you for being you, 
You may not know what you have done to support this friend, 
Perhaps it was a smile, those small things we can’t always comprehend. 

Thank you for your love
And thank you for your hugs when tears were leaving my face
This life of yours should never become a waste. 

Thanks you for your company
Thank you for the time when you gave me peace, 
You said nothing and that helped tame my inner beast.

Thank you for being you
You have a wonderful and beautiful soul, 
Tomorrow is another day, as I thank you my friend
The road to recovery will pose many questions which have no answers, 
Today you are moving forward with joy and hope
You shan’t need to delve on that slippery slope. 

Thank you my friend
You a blessing which God provided, 
I just wish there were more of you by making you divided.

Hello for today

​Hello
How are you today?
“This is a stop gap,” I am saying to me
I will be looking towards a new life to feel free.

Hello
It will be okay,
No more tears, simply new beginnings 
Looking for a new start 
I will be okay, change can never truly depart.

Hello,
It will be okay,
Walking on your journey has been something new
The road for anyone is fascinating from the things that we do.

You will be okay 
You may not feel it now,
Confidence we can be lacking from time to time 
But today promises to reveal itself eventually, that’s what I find.

“Everything is temporary…”

Is this goodbye?

​My home for 53 years
What are you referring to? God said “don’t worry there is nothing to fear.”

My home since 1977
I grew up there, now I say goodbye,
Is that for good? As I shan’t sigh or look to cry.

My home as long as I can remember,
Recalling Dad taking us to this new home,
Now we are in 2026 where times have changed
It’s through my higher power as I now turn onto the next page.

This has been my home for such a long time
But the door will shut as long God wants it that way,
As long I remain spiritual, I can now lay my head in this new place to stay,

Experience, strength and Hope (ESH - A.A. Poem)

​I care for you 
But you need to do the work, 
So here is my story, thought I was going to die, I continued to drink until it started to get worse. 

I had that epiphany
That moment that changed a lot, 
I didn’t want to be on this earth
I felt I had no value in my life… for what’s that was worth. 

I did eventually get the help, and received the community detox to get this stuff out
I started to abstain, as this new life I was still dubious for wanting to be about. 

The thing is we are here, we have another chance 
I wished and prayed for all people with this disease to come through this torrential ordeal,
And that life today is simply for the ‘here and now’
I end my queue there, as I shall take a humble bow.

‘Always in recovery.. grateful A.A. Member”

Emotinally unavailable

​People need to know their limits 
And that others are not emotinally available all the time, 
Emotions do run thick and fast 
Praying to God I hope this person’s words won’t continue to last. 

I am hear to today 
Working out the next best move, 
I want to hold onto God today, I know he has the remedy to soothe. 

It’s about love 
It’s about looking after body, heart and soul, 
It’s about wanting to find what’s best for you
Unlike me, I need to take my own advice in this road where I imbue. 

I am here today
And perhaps tomorrow won’t be around, 
Only God knows how long I will be staying around for
I am happy I have the present moment… and won’t sought anything else more.

“Feeling emotional….”
Jason
18th August 2026

I know its going to be alright

​I know it’s going to be alright
I am just a little nervous at this moment in time,
I want to pick up but I am grateful my sponsor was at hand
He said to me: “don’t you dare touch a drink as I will soon call”
I felt comfort during this potential fall. 

I am feeling sober right now
And it feels great, 
I will soon have a warm drink to calm my nerves
As the 12 step programme gives you a chance to serve.

I know I’ll be alright
I just need to stay still and remain in the present time, 
And focus on God and leave this at his son’s feet, 
Therefore I am here today; in the present moment as I want to cool down and not face the heat.

I know it will be alright 
I have no chance but to find a way, 
I need to speak to a light minded fellow as the anxiety is attacking through the thoughts which currently lay.

I know it will be okay
Thanks to my higher power, as I am scared what will happen next, 
I need to stay in the present, and avoid hearing words which can cause myself to vext.

Jason
18th August 2026

Looking towards

​I am ‘all or nothing’,as I can’t hold back
I am trying to balance my thinking as I can’t afford to think to slack. 

i am too emotional
I can’t change the way I am, 
Or can I stay strong my friend
It’s between you and God and all the moments that I need to make amends.

I am all or nothing, 
A poet with lots on his mind, 
A poet that loves with his heart, body and soul
God is always there… so there I shall go. 

The aim is to ‘snap out of it’ 
Be the best version of yourself that you are able to be,
May your higher power humble your heart, as this new venture is more than you needing to flee.

Jason

Crying.. and closer to Faith

​Some people are kind
Some people are bright, 
Some people are aggressive, and often want a fight. 

We are who we are 
But the focus is always on your higher power, 
The guide, the force and the timing of God at the point you receive 
That moment of focus could come from anywhere… well that’s what I believe.

It will be okay
Don’t worry, people can make you feel good, bad and awkwardly so, 
if you don’t connect, that isn’t your fault, you are who you are
It’s finding a balance that works
The world is troubled enough, nothing stays the same so you won’t always hold onto the hurt. 

People have their ways, 
You don’t have to understand, asking doesn’t always do it for me
I accept people for who they are… the most important thing is that you find God and the spirit sets you free.

Jason
18th August 2026

Moving towards a continuum

​You look to a new future 
Or is it part of the present time that’s turned a page, 
You are still you, you have just reached another page. 

Yes, emotions run deep
You won’t be able to contain, 
I need God first by having a prayer, 
It will be okay.. I know the Father is always there. 

I might cry when I write these words, 
Some will understand and others won’t, 
It’s okay, it’s my journey and I am expressing it on a post
As I know positive thinking along with God means the most. 

I don’t have to worry anymore
I am in the present, and that is a good thing today, 
I don’t need to create conversation unless my hearts needs to process something out of my comfort zone, as afterwards I know you won’t be okay. 

Jason
18th August 2026

Focus on your good

​Focus on the good in your life, 
And if that’s a hard question to answer?
Pray, there is plenty to connect with through the moments you seek with your enhancer.

Your ‘enhancer’ is your spirit
The one that guides you every step of the way, 
Yes, there shall be struggles.. but they are unable to stay. 

Focus on the now
and see what good you can do,
Keeping active and walk on the road which you pursue. 

You keep trying 
And if you are trying, as that is clearly a positive thing, 
I’ll pray for you, as humility, mercy and grace shall lift the spirits which you will always bring.

Jason
18th August 2026

it’s okay…

​we can all worry from time to time,
“Will this work?”
“Can I afford?”
These are all moments that we can only record.

It will be okay
Try, and if it doesn’t work try something else,
I rather pray on it, and seek what is held.

It will be okay
This life we face will face many trials and tribulations,
It’s inevitable as we shall all face many situations.

So believe in yourself 
Your higher power will see you through,
These are words I’ll say to myself, as sometimes even I don’t have a clue!

Jason
18th August 2026

Don’t hold it in

​Don’t hold onto what hold you in
You won’t achieve anything, and you won’t be able to win.

Don’t hold your thoughts inside, 
Speak your your truth and open the thoughts in your mind, 
You won’t feel great at first, but soon you shall feel there tears shall dry.

Don’t hold your thoughts in
Don’t allow the devil to win this fight, 
You are lead by a power that is gentle but will revel their steel
This is a walk that you know will be uplifting and real.

Don’t allow negative thoughts to rule
You aren’t anyone else’s fool. 
Be led by God and into the light,
and if you think this is a religious message, I would delete that word from the mind
As spirituality has openness and will deliver what is kind. 

Jason
17th August 2026

Tomorrow… or not

​No more alcohol
And that’s just for today, 
Step by step and bit by bit
This sobriety shall sharpen your wit.

No more struggles 
A new way to live, 
No more feeling loose by drinking one.. or two
This new life is what you are prepared and ready to pursue. 

I was scared and cried all of the time, 
Thinking the world was against me as I couldn’t take it no more, 
Was this ‘life on life’s terms’? mind you my liver felt sore. 

I cried for help, it stayed on the inside of life
The addiction became unbearable but God stayed here and didn’t let go of my hand
‘You are my child’, I heard my higher power say
I will heal you, so now you look to a new life as a new life is on its way.

Fighting

​There is a fight which takes place emotionally 
There is a fight physically 
There is a fight with the mind,
Each day there is confrontation, especially from others… that’s what I find. 

and some people love the debate
Others won’t entertain it, or comeback with a snappy answer:
When discernment is the solution
As a prayer is often the lead of resolution.

Fighting is part of life
It’s a tool which love uses when attempting to keep your thoughts together 
And that love is key to overcome stormy weather. 

Fighting is part of life
And knowing when you stop is a balance too, 
Embrace the fight… with the prayers you shall ensue.

Happy birthday to a beautiful soul

​Hey Cassandra, yes you! 
We would like to say ‘Happy birthday’ to our beautiful friend, 
There is light that loves you, and can raise you through this life from where we all have transcend. 

You are our beautiful friend,
And we love you so, so much, this life 
Is given to you through your higher power, 
Love, kindness and hope are key to this life which you lead,
We all love you, a blessing from the heart flourishes like petals and scattered seeds.

Cassandra, you are highly favoured, respected and loved,
The road has had it bumps on the way,
Birthday blessings poured onto you as we are honoured to have you here today. 

Life is what God gives to us,
And with you Cassandra there is a path that will revel itself much clearer,
The walk on this day is a blessing, and humbling to have you warmly nearer.

“Happy birthday Cassandra.. we love you 🙏🏽❤️ Amy and friends”

You don’t need to do this alone (A.A. Poem)

​You don’t need to do this alone
You can kick, punch, scream but there’s a friend and a fellow who shall defuse your initial moan.

You are okay to be okay,
I know you will be alright,
You have admitted acceptance and ready for this never ending fight. 

You are recovering 
Your win shall follow onto the next, 
You will overcome these struggles with fellows and meetings,
It all starts with a welcoming greeting.

So have a good day 
This disease won’t go away, 
But there is a defence
As this addiction almost destroyed us all, through the hell it sent.

We see a new life by helping fellows who get our point of view,
The aim is to stop and accept the programme to the depths of your soul
You’ll won’t regret.. you’ll continue to be humbled and learn to regrow.

Good morning life

​good morning life 
How are we today?
Looking for new opportunities and not seeking what’s in the way,

Good morning life 
What are we up to at this time, 
Any plans for the day? 
Or looking to relax and seek your higher power to comprehend it shall be okay.

Good morning life
Thank you that you brought me this far, 
Learning from the past as all I have is today;
As long as I do good and live in the present and avoid to sway.

Good morning life
It will be okay, don’t be concerned 
I’ve cried my heart out; and released the uncertainty which unnerves me so much, 
Today there is a blessing poured upon you, a miracle and a loving touch.

The hope that we find.

​We seek and can’t find a way, 
There is always a ‘God’ moment that appears out of nowhere and simply obeys.

We seek and we shall find
But it’s through a prayer where this walk takes place, 
All shall be okay, take the steps and learn to embrace. 

We seek and eventually find a hope, 
We have all entered on a slippery slope.

Don’t give in, I won’t let that happen
There are prayers which shall be said, 
Remember this is what we need to do before we go to bed.

A honest chair

​Hello you, how are you today? 
I am here to give my sobriety journey, 
And this ‘new’ hope makes life worthy.

Hello you, how you today?
Service is kindness in a cup, 
And that this life in sobriety is to never ever give up. 

Hello you, how are you at this time
Living for the present, the moment shall awake 
That epiphany and accept that time when I was drunk I was being fake. 

How are you? I love you on this journey today 
Things are going to be alright, so keep coming back into the rooms, 
We are not alone when shares take place, 
Please don’t go back, as drunkenness does not win
And that this sober life is your next of kin.

If others can do it, so can I

​I am in a predicament
I am nervous, and I don’t know why?
I am not scared, just a little apprehensive, as I dislike those words which express a ‘goodbye’.

This is temporary
Find a life or path you will walk on,
You’ll never know? You shall enter a path you may belong.  

I refuse to be an avarice
I am not in this world for my own gain, 
I love those who I love, but life is on life’s terms, therefore be open and aim to maintain. 

You are doing the right things 
No point feeling angst anymore; 
Negative talk is no longer part of my life, 
those who entertain that notion will eventually have to learn, 
As now through this opportunity awaits and from which I shall discern.

A new start

​hey don’t be sad
Looking for a new beginning is hard at first,
Life is a series of moments as this isn’t a rehearse. 

You shall keep going 
And you’ll find your way,
It will be different, learning new places to be
God is with… don’t worry, you’ll find a new form of free.

Leaving behind the chaos 
And the madness which elevates everyday,
Believe in yourself, you shall be alright during this stay.

Treat it like a holiday
You are staying there because you need to regroup and rest, 
Remember this is a path to walk.. as you shall soon feel blessed.

When I wanted to die….

​when I wanted to die you were there,
When I wanted to die, you showed there’s another heart to share.

When I wanted to die, I wanted to meet my maker
But you held my hand in A&E when I wanted to call it quits
My mind was full of destruction and in utter bits.

Next week Birmingham 
Perhaps forever or maybe for little while,
You gave me a home when I lost my guile.

I held my distance because words caused hurt to my feelings
I lost my best friend, as I was losing this life and constantly seething.

I know a new beginning calls as tears fill my eyes,
God asked me to write this poem… and to you.. that’s no surprise.

“Thanks Nikki & Matthew x I say little as my head can only take so much.”

Super ego….

​A super ego kills, 
You may feel euphoric, but there are no deals, 
No deals to help
No deals to make that side of you work
The world is crazy enough, day by day
It’s your higher power that has the final say. 

A super ego kills, 
You may feel powerful, strong and unstoppable 
Yet in this sadistic world, the efforts are NOT unflappable. 

A super ego destroys
It serves you nothing, 
Bring your higher power in, 
God has got this, in no one loses or wins. 

A powerful ego is a dangerous one
And people shall argue this is the only way, 
Yes, be confident, find your direction 
I tell you the truth… a ‘Super ego’ cannot meet any perfection.

Can’t do this alone

​A.A. Member and I was speaking to my sponsor, 
Surrendering to a power great than I, 
I was in despair and simply wanted to say goodbye. 

If that is you, please don’t give in
You will be okay, trust in the words of A.A.
And remember it’s okay to say how you truly feel, 
No judgement from here, but your sponsor and you would need to heal. 

You have to acknowledge patience
And time with others who are in the same boat, 
Life on life’s terms, and the bonus no one in the A.A. Rooms shall judge or gloat. 

You are uniquely you, 
You are made as you are;
If others complain about you loose ‘drinking’ mind,
God remains still, he is patient and through the programme of your higher power.. you shall find a ‘deep seated’ kind.

Believe in yourself.

​When I hear my friend say: ‘I wish I could do that’?
Yet they don’t see the skills and talents they have today, 
They need to believe in themselves, so be patient, but then again that’s a attribute in itself
All things are possible, so what do you want? love, kindness, or never ending wealth.

Say you want it all? Then give it your best shot
But belief in you comes from a higher power to support, 
Spiritual growth is surrender and gratification, things which we often fought. 

I believe in you, but you need to do the work
I can encourage, love and be there to a point, 
It’s the love from your higher power which is hopeful and can anoint. 

Look at me, I thought I was unlovable
And in the past people have said this sort of thing, 
Yet it’s God who makes a decision in your life, that’s the sort of thing he does bring.

So believe in you
And discern before any decision you about to make, 
There must be belief in you, otherwise there is blindness from what you do fake.

Happy birthday Claire 🎂

​You are a blessing 
And you are a friend, 
You are a sister, I shall encourage you to the very end. 

Have a wonderful day
Have a wonderful ‘new’ life, 
Be around those to elevate you, I will be part of that.. if you don’t mind?

You have been through a lot
Be patient, be kind to you.. you are the most important person there is
You are mother and a hope to others, a place you can’t ever dismiss. 

You have been on this journey for 61 years,
There is nothing else you need to fear, 
Surround yourself with light minded people, you have been through enough struggles in life
This is a beautiful birthday for my friend Claire, 
Who has always shown us kindness, love and plenty more to share. 

“Happy birthday  Claire.. λεβέντης μου“

Life’s terms

​Good morning
How are you today?
A simple hello to bless you all
Caring is the bases to avoid any of us to fall.

You may not be able to sleep; 
But words are powerful to the heart and mind,
New beginnings beckon, especially where I love fellowship, yet be vigilant to your soul, that’s what I truly find.

Thank you for being you
I know you don’t mean to be resentful or say these negative things; 
The walk with faith has direction as you spiritually grow,
Life on life’s terms, where there’s a world out there to know.

People are important
And your higher powerful shall guide you through,
I end on these two words, and that’s simply ‘bless you’

Jason

Thank you for you

​Hello, yes you!!
I am talking to you right now,
I won’t leave you alone, and I wouldn’t want YOU to leave yourself too,
Remaining patient in this walk that you constantly do.

Hello you,
Where have you been?
We walk by sight, 
And in our higher power that will overpower the fight. 

Hello you 
I do hope you are okay?
We are there to walk by faith, 
We refuse the moments we lost focus and led by haste.

It can only be you God,
I rather say that time and time again, 
Remain blessed by saying a ‘all or nothing’ prayer 
And remember the hope is in the omnipresence that’s everywhere.

The place you are at

​It won’t be long 
A bad day follows something good,
Jesus loves you, and that’s not an ‘ought to’ but a should. 

It’s all okay
Here is my poetic prayer
Things will be okay, I need to convince myself of that too from this open and  honest share. 

It’s all okay
You are in one place one minute, and another the next, 
The most important thing is that we are able to rest and reconnect.

So don’t worry
You will be fine,
You may not know it, I feel I have  been in your place too,
Before you know it you’ll be laughing and forgetting what happened in this tapestry of hope in which you already knew.

Just Say hello

​just say hello
Pray, breathe and then later go.

Just say hello
It will be alright,
We are all enduring into a lengthy fight.

Some crosses are bigger than others
Some crosses are quite light, 
There is a higher power who has your best interests to get close and perhaps excite. 

Thank you God 
You are here today, 
I know you are never far, and possess an omnipresent stay. 

Thank you God
We all need you right now, 
You have overcome depression, which to be fair I was defenceless therefore allow.

Rush hour..

​one day there shall be peace,
But I feel you shan’t receive it right now, 
And if you do receive that peace now, then great;
I am saying this metaphorically in the chaos and haste.

Some people need the noise
Some people want the peace, 
It’s a fine tuning balance.. it’s hard in London, but in the countryside there is silence which is constant release.

Some people like the noise
They need a bit of drama to spice up their day,
Nothing wrong with these types, they need the energy to be their friend, the chaos follows afterwards and their cause to intensity their ways.

I am writing these words in the heat,
You may find that they are coming from some sort of delusion,
These are words from the heart and no cause to give you confusion. 

I’ll say goodbye to the chaos
I’ll miss it to a point,
As long I pray to our God, that’s the point we need to anoint.

Never a goodbye

​We only live in moments, 
One minute happy, sad, sombre or simply okay
The world is a mysterious place that can play tricks with you… even today.

You can be on top of the world one minute
And feeing awful the next,
You simply look for solutions, ask to speak to a friend through phone call, whassup or text. 

We only have now
That’s all we have got, 
If you think negative, you are portraying nothing of any worth, 
I prefer to do something, gathering the strength to serve.

I thank you for today
I thank you for being you, at your worse and best, 
I know we all have each other… no more or for no less.

Well done Ems

​Well done Ems you are favoured and loved, 
As God has blessed you to never give up.

Well done, we are most proud
And so you should be of yourself too, 
This road of discovery will enter all the good things you are able to create and do.

Well done
University will be your calling,
You are favoured and will enter a new realm,
Love and blessings are poured on you, in new ventures you shall delve.

Stay blessed and remember God has got your back,
You will acquire the skills and desires, 
Just be patient with you, as others will learn from you as well as admire.

“Well done Ems.. proud of you ❤️”

Nothing is forever

​Don’t worry
Nothing is forever, 
Stay humble and try to hone into your higher power… and that’s not to be clever.

Don’t worry, it’s going to be okay
I need to convince myself that too,
It’s though a prayer which guides, and that I need to ensue. 

Love your cornerstone
It’s your strength too,
Don’t worry, you will be fine
God has got this, it’s through his mercy and grace you shall overcome what’s in the mind. 

Don’t worry 
Today has arrived, the chance to breathe and hold onto the essence of the present time,
And thank God, as all shall be fine.

I can’t be bothered

​Title: I can’t be bothered 

I can’t be bothered to get into a debate, 

People who turn their words around and decided what they said to you, that you would hate.

I was tired and. 

I refused to talk to people who spoke for arguments sake,

I preserved my opinion to avoid to mental health break.

People who are on the edge, and couldn’t see eye to eye,

I wanted to ‘do me’ and for the others I’ll say goodbye.

I am a born and bread a Londoner, through and through 

But when God says move, you need to listen and simply ‘do’.
