I wanna thank you

I wanna thank you-

regardless of if you hear it,

Cuz i was teetering on the slick ledge of life-

Looking over the edge; not afraid.

So this is an ode to those who made sure i didn’t lose my balance.

Cuz i went a little crazy back in the days of recovery,

Luckily i had more than one angel lookin over me,

Cuz i met god, when i asked for heaven she said i was lost,

If i dont know that i’m already there i’m really lost.

Hell, she said, is only in your mind.

And i’ve been there too.

He’s not that introspective.

So this is to those who kept my sanity in a jar,

Let me cool down, then opened it up and showed me who i really was.

To those who understand, comprehend and mend.

This is an ode to patience.

An ode to salience.

An ode to late nights, remembering and forgetting all at once,

An ode to self preservation,

Self appreciation.

An ode to those who had my back, who still do,

An ode to those who saved my life from thousands of miles away,

Those who still save my life, every single day.

I wanna thank you, regardless of if you hear it.
