Please Don't Text And Drive

I know you don't need preaching at

You've got good sense - you do

You're on the ball without a doubt

But you're only human too

I am concerned - I will admit

About stories, stats and such

And maybe it's unnecessary

To even bring this up

It's just that you mean so much to me

And as each new day arrives

It's really good to know you're safe

So please don't text and drive!

Plea Of A Drunkard

I hate that you've seen me at my worst

When I've fallen as low as I could

Too far down and broken to help myself

Back up to the place I once stood

When life wasn't perfect by any means

And goodness knows - neither was I

But I had it together pretty good then

And I walked with my head held up high

I have my excuses and reasons

My demons and heartaches as well

And like everyone - I'm only human

We all have our stories to tell!

So please don't ridicule and judge me

For the unfortunate state I'm in today

Just count all the blessings in your own life

And wish me well as you go on your way
