Through the actions of one man
My wretched, wasted life redeemed
And I found the courage to start again
*
Whether through some divine plan
Or fate’s twisted schemes
Through the actions of one man
*
A figure, disheveled and wan
Walked away exalted and esteemed
And I found the courage to start again
*
A voice said, “Yes, you can!"
And hope within like sunlight gleamed
Through the actions of one man
*
Under compassionate eyes ofd bright cyan
A benevolent smile beamed
And I found the courage to start again
*
That day a new chapter began
Brighter than I could've ever dreamed
Through the actions of one man
And I found the courage to start again

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.
