The Way Life Comes At You

Changes in my life are moving rapidly
I feel like a fish on a line in a fast-moving river.
Finding out I am autistic at age of 50
thus explains my entire career of misfortune.
Recognizing I am an alcoholic at age 50
helped me find direction, recovery and help.

During these 5 years, I am now regaining
my sense of self worth and learning to love myself.
I have close friends, family who supports me
and help when I need it, now knowing to ask for it.
I am happier now than I have ever been and
am more creative and expressive than ever before.
