I was never content with anything,the crass was always greener on the other side. I wished I had more money. I wished I was married. I wished people understood me. I wished I could stop drinking...Hmmm. All wishes.

I looked for years, But could not see That all my mistakes
Were caused by me

I looked for years, But could not see
All the love that surrounded me

Traveled so many different ways, Trying to justify those evil days

I looked for years, But could not see
I was an alcoholic, Drowning in me
I used everything I could find I was way out of my mind

I looked for years, But could not see
Farther than my nose, I was near sighted
and God knows Self centered and Selfish As can be

Just another alcoholic, Who was not free
Chains bound my spirit, Back in those days
Held prisoner By Lust, Greed, Alcohol

Held tight, Did not know To get free
I had to let go

Looked for years, But could not see
My biggest problem was me, Altered reality kept me blind

I look for years but could not find, Any peace or serenity
Guilt and shame Was all I could see
Sick and tired Of Being sick and tired
I turned to the fellowship

The place where love abides No one there needs to hide

Honest
Open
Willing

I started to see


Opened my eyes To reality
No longer bound I was now free
I thank my God For helping me to see

Peace
Serenity
Humility

Now dwells Inside of me

Thanks to my Sponsor And God I can now see.

I look no further for I can see. I have all from AA

And that will do me.
