"I don't know" was the most
honest answer I ever gave,
when asked why I sought oblivion in a bottle.
Today I know why, I have a "God sized hole" in me,
which makes me thirsty to fill it with anything or anyone.
But that hole can only be filled by a loving Power,
a God of my own understanding.
I am not sure what God's will for me is sometimes,
but it sure isn't drinking myself to death in a basement.
I don't know if I really helped someone today,
but all I could do was share my experience
and i feel a little more free and connected.
This great unknowing is taking root
and making room for me to grow.
