Every meeting I go to…(A.A. Poem)

​Every meeting I go to is like oxygen
A place I won’t be judged, where you look at the similarities and not the differences, 
There’s the first 90 days when people want a new way of life, 
The chairing is amazing and the best place to start ending this madness and strife.

The principles are there, 
They are there to help, 
People suffering in the rooms who are unable to stop, 
Surrendering and withdraw through this madness that often rots. 

The place is safe, it can be the ultimate frontline, 
There is blindness in this addiction, all we want is a new way of life, to call yours and mine.

Today we have a light
A chance to start anew, 
God or whom you see him to be, 
Is your last chance to get out of this gratuitous mess… the higher power shall set you free.

Addict, then there’s life…

​I am me!
Who are you?
I am an addict, with fitness, writing and booze
The latter I am now blessed and have decided to lose.

I am me!
Nothing more, nothing less, 
I have made plenty of errors, and others remind me of my mess. 

So where are those people now?
They are far away from me, 
Yes they are right at that at that moment to express my waning hurt
I confess to my sins, as I too was burnt.

What is an addict?
Someone who takes things to access, 
Their brain acts like that normally, it’s a ‘all or nothing’ for me, which I personally need to confess. 

I train like a lunatic, 
I need the burn for whatever I choose to do, 
I don’t care if I am judged for this.. this my temperament which I shall always able to pursue.

Hello George…

​Hello George
How are you today?
The world is still moving, and you keep asking questions..good for you.. answers need to come your way.

Hello George, I believe this is a special day for you, 
should I say ‘happy birthday’ now, a moment from which we celebrate and imbue.

enjoy this day, it’s yours to celebrate after all, 
You are a wonderful human being, devoted to mum, sister and your brother
You are one of a kind.. yes, this is cliche,… like no other. 

Happy birthday George,
Enjoy this day, stay blessed and remember God is always there,
When you have a moment say your prayers… as this is a moment to share. 

“Happy birthday George…. Have a wonderful day.”

At this precise time.. I had to write

​There was this song playing 
I stopped, tears left my eye, 
This was reflective years that needed to say goodbye.

I don’t know where these words shall lead, 
I know (like you), I have feelings, cut, bruise and also bleed. 

I know I haven’t been there for everyone, 
Is that possible? I don’t think it is, 
You try your best… and pray… avoiding to dismiss. 

Sometimes we just need to cry and let it out, 
It’s about the journey you are on, 
Don’t always listen to others… this is your journey from which you belong. 

This took me a minute to write, 
The higher power spoke to me so clearly, 
I know these words are for you, if you complete reading the words that I write
There is hope… and for you.. there is tremendous amount of light…

I talk to the mirror

​When all appears lost, what do you do?
I would talk to the mirror, and seek any glaring clues.

I try not to know it all
I try to humble myself down, 
I know my super-ego got the better of me, do I know better? I just say I have had experience… and through those moments I often drown. 

I am a stranger in these current settings
I walk away and say nothing else, 
I have been support by services and independent domain,
I go to A.A. Meetings to look at the ‘similarities’ not the ‘differences’, which my memory is able to retain. 

I know I have messed up, 
I have done the steps but I try hard to keep going without surrender, 
I know in the kingdom of my higher power, that I enter in frail and slightly tender.

Nothing is perfect

​Embrace your imperfection, and it’s only appreciated when you fall time and time again,
The last time is when you seek for help higher than you,
There is a passage we all look to ensue.

I often laugh, turning dark humour into light,
Really my humour come from tragedy which I have faced, 
I appear to overcome with a mask wanting to enter into another place. 

You see people are who they are, 
What works for one may not for the other, 
You see I do care, but can I take the pain away?
The answer is not really, but I can be your friend just for today.

Today is all we have, I have said that time and time again, 
We have all done garish things thought the pattern we are unable to defend. 

People will support 
And family sometimes help or won’t at all, 
I have faced the latter, and believe me after my Dad died I was waiting to fall. 

We are learning everyday
We are trying to be the best version we can be, 
I won’t compare myself with anyone, I don’t care how great their life looks like, this mental health journey strangles and isn’t at all free.

So stay blessed, 
Look towards your higher power for support, 
And remember that this life is only temporary so fight to the end and avoid your mind to be fraught.
