Mocktails (acrostic)

by deeplydesturbed   Jun 30, 2017


Mangos, strawberries and apples
Oranges, lemons and limes
Cranberries, bananas and melons
Kiwi, pineapple and mandarins.
These are all flavours
And substitutes for the real deal
I drink these in my mocktails
Liquor isn’t required, but it makes my mind feel okay
Sometimes I just need to trick myself.

    An acrostic with a message that runs deep. Sometimes tricking yourself is just what you need to pull through a difficult moment. Each moment won is a step forward to victory. Well done x
