But that wasn’t it……

They say they have a pill to take away the pain…. Of all the crazy things I did….. and called myself sane

I hope it helps someone…. I found another way…. took me a long time to embrace it…. defiance has its ways

but after many years of lying to myself it became so blatantly obvious to me …..I could no longer trust myself and that’s a terrible place to be

so when there were no other options and the elevator kept going down…I hit the emergency switch and my make believe world came crashing down

so underneath the rubble I reviewed my disastrous life and finally accepted the fact I couldn’t do this by myself

through the rubble the hands of AA appeared and finally I took those hands …. I knew the end was near I needed a better plan

it has been a slow process learning how to walk and talk without the crutches of alcohol and drugs to dull the issues of life

 But beaten into submission was the path it took for me….I hope the pill helps someone….AA was the pill that worked for me

AA was the guiding hand that saved a wayward wretch like me

because many people cared the hands of AA set me free

so it is my grateful obligation to give to others what was freely….. given to me

thank you brothers and sisters in recovery
