a path to better

I'm trying to take better care of myself these days
and I hope that you are too.
I've been sleeping much better than I have
in many months
Most of that is probably due to my complete
lack of drinking
I'm ok with that change
I'm fine saying no to a drink
I just feel better about myself
I've even begun to lost some weight
I've been playing more music and
I've been writing more
I wake up feeling rested
instead of half dead
Why had I been doing to myself
what I had been doing to myself
for so long?
No good answer
but that isn't where I am now
For that I can be glad
