__ grant me the serenity
to forgive all my enemies
grant me the courage,
and the strength
to never take another drink
I need some of your wisdom,
too
to never lose my faith in you
I'll carve your name upon my wrist
to make sure that I don't forget
but I've no cash
for more tattoos
so Sharpie will just have to do
a simple stripe,
a simple band
a couple dots across my hand
so to the world,
it's plain to see
that you have left your mark on me
and you may think it's kinda odd
that this prayer doesn't mention God
I put my faith in something real
the most profound thing I can feel
there's no one I would place above
the one I'm always thinking of
To someone who has pulled me from the edge a lot more times than I can count. Who believed in me when no one else did, and the constant reminder that I am not alone. In you I have found my higher power.
