Nearly losing my children, and a loving caring wife.
No longer will I make the mistake, and pick up that first one
I'm no longer Jekyll and Hyde, as Mr Hyde has gone.
No longer will I let, this demon rule my life
As this demon is no friend of mine, it causes loss of life.
This demon that I speak of, has more than one disguise
He takes on all my favourite forms, and tells the best of lies
Convincing me it's all o.k, go ahead take a few sips
leading to a road of ruin, once it's touched my lips.
I blamed everyone and everything, from my family to my friends
But if I were to pick up that drink, I know how this all ends.
I gaze into my children's eyes, and see their hearts are sad
They can see for sure, they are going to lose their Dad.
What can make me do this, what makes me turn away?
This thing I talk of is demon drink, what is left to say.
I tell myself every day, John, I know you can
But until that day comes, then I'll never be a man.
For far too long I've chosen, that demon we call drink
So from this day forth and forever more, I will stop and think.
Think of all the things I have, so special and still pure
And tell myself I have a problem, for which there is a cure.
This cure comes from my strength, I hold it deep within
And now I've finally realised, my life can truly begin.
Hi guys, just a little poem I have written, hope you enjoyed reading it
