Behaviour
Irrational or rude
Annoying or mushy
Aggressive or violent
has been lost
in an emotional and chemical vortex.
vanished as though never there.
Addiction to alcohol or drugs a catalytic converter.
An old adage learned at an adult’s knee
is torn and tattered,
frayed and ragged
An individual heart and soul is not lost
merely trapped
in need of peace, calm and kindness.
Baby steps being taken
Eyes shining again
Self-respect regained deserves anyone’s respect.
“I never meet a ragged boy in the street without feeling
that I may owe him a salute, for I know not what
possibilities may be buttoned up under his coat.”
~ James A. Garfield
