DRINKING NEW DAWNS
Foundations forming as minds wide open are blindly accepting of challenges or change
Unestablished, not even finding middle ground, lost in between either up or down
With no guiding light loose minds quickly become lost in the dark ,scruples are still not trained
Slowly feeding the frenzy finding bright while blocking out black,washing memories before they're allowed
Rituals become normal with time, as simple as walking new desires can be stalking but reality can not be feigned
Well laid plans systematically rundown,lost perceptions now lounging,responsibility now so easily disavowed
Reckless rambling instead of learning to live ,strategy's played out in days forgoing any planning while existing unconstrained
Now lost never knowing the promise that could have been ,unpaid debts to yourself don't carry much clout
Bargaining with time is certainly not fine,life slowed down enough to see some light relax the fight and define constraint
Now with new beginnings realizing how far behind we have fallen,rising daily to find a new route
Life opening up, stalled visions now surrounded by light, a better bet when we know the odds,new views to be entertained . R.C.

While it is certainly a big part of who I am surprisingly my own sobriety ,drug free has not came out in prose.am sure a few lines would not pay proper homage to the vision I discovered when realizing I could be in control of my own mind. Thanks for reading your thoughts are helpful. Rick
