A Peaceful Mind
"Not Nothing"
I may be retired but I am not lazy
I'm manic depressive but I am not crazy
I'm trained to fight but I'm not aggressive
I'm destined to write, I'm so expressive
I'm a little obsessive but I will not brood
Or base my serenity on other people's mood
I will wait for love though I love affection
I will strive for progress there is no perfection
I may be an addict but I'm not addicted
I feel ecstatic my thoughts have shifted
I feel so free, a peaceful something
A brand new me, I am not nothing
