Travis Lepine - Where Does My Road Lead?

I’ve reinstated foregoing thoughts
Of sobriety and hope.
The mackerel sky doth shine its light
Upon my newfound scope.
For years my light was far too dim
But this day I renew the flame
That had been sovereign with hope
Not prevailing thoughts of shame.
But sober days do violently incise my will
And I lapse to antecedent ways.
I bury myself in a grave of famine
Living within these infectious days.
I battle Satan’s mercenaries
With every flash of conscientiousness.
I’m blinded on this debauched road
In which I have digressed.
