I am losing control of myself
No longer do I have a grip
A once steady course set upon
Seems to have given me the slip
So often I used to turn to myself
My thoughts, spilled out into words
Now finding it difficult to say what I mean
Having difficulty being heard
Perhaps it has come to a point
A climax so to speak
Or a fork in the road
The top of a mountain – it’s peak.
Honest with myself
It’s about time
A scary thought
To see into my mind.
Admit the truth of my breaking point
How close I came to the edge
Only to have some unlikely soul push me back
And force me to honor a pledge
That fresh start gave me new life
Renewed strength to carry on
I will take that new beginning
To bring my Self back as I know it’s not all gone
