People, Places & Things (Poem)

People, places and things, Oh my
l just lost the key to my mind

I just slipped and fell on a bottle or two
I just bruised up my behind

I met some people
Found some places
Did some things I do regret

And try as I may try
I’ll never find a fix to forget

I knew not what I came to do
And reaped the hell I sowed

And what I lost
I’ll never find
The wreckage of my soul

What a bitter sweet surrender
When I gave my life to God

All those people, places and things I know
Are shadows in the dark
