A ‘good day’ and a ‘perfect day’
I get up in the morning – and openly say
I do not want to gamble – at all today
Sometimes for me – the day goes okay
And it ends up being – a really good day
But today – my day seemed really sh**t
I felt I couldn’t cope – with things one bit
I started to think – I really want to quit
But without gambling – could I handle it?
I sat and dealt – with the feelings instead
I tried to get the day’s c**p – out of my head
I sat and thought about – what had been said
And I settled my mind – before going to bed
At the end of this c**p day – I am still gamble free
A great achievement – which I feel is meant to be
I coped with life’s sh**e – which was great to see
Today wasn’t just a ‘good day’ – but a ‘perfect one’ for me
