1. Letting go of the demon's hand - day 8 - Oh you lucky ones

   Posted on 12:00pm Monday 8th May 2017

   Oh you lucky ones

    

   Oh you lucky ones standing in the sun,

   Hear us standing in the shadows,

   There are worse things than death.

   Sometimes life can be incurable

    

   Oh you lucky ones drinking from streams,

   See us standing in the puddles,

   There are worse things than brackish waters.

   Sometimes life can poison.

    

   Oh you lucky ones singing songs of union,

   Hear us wailing in the distance,

   There are worse things than loneliness.

   Sometimes a lover cuts deep.

    

   Oh you lucky ones dreaming of retirement,

   See us shuffling towards you,

   There are worse things than old age.

   Sometimes childhood breaks you.

    

   Oh you lucky ones longing to be set free.

   See us shackled for unknown offences.

   There are worse things than being held.

   Sometimes an embrace burns.

   Would it be so wrong

   To treat my ills with poison?

   Would it be so wrong,

   To admit that I’m lost in the shadows?

   Would it be so wrong,

   To not get up the next time I fall?

   Would it be so wrong,

   To acknowledge my failures?

   Would it be so wrong,

   To not just drink but to drown?

   Would it be so wrong,

   To deny faith?

   And would it be so wrong,

   To not just stop hoping

   but caring too?
