"Not Just a Phase"

"My sobriety isn't just a phase.
It's not like it's the latest craze.
This is about my life or death.
Because I almost died,
from crystal meth.

I am not going back,
and that is a fact!
It would be like welcoming,
another stroke,
or heart attack!

I only have,
one life to live,
and I choose to live it.
I forgive,
myself for all the wrongs I did,
and now I choose,
I choose to give,
back to those,
who have lost their will to live.
I'll help guide the lost back home,
and help Him make them His."
