Its now been ten weeks since I drank
and so time to reflect
On cravings and some other things
like love and self respect
At times they were in short supply
a bleak and barren shore
but sobriety has come to me
replenishing the store.
While others thought my life was sweet
I knew the truth inside
I’m standing on a precipice
and fearful of the slide
to depths unplumbed imagined fears
were constants in my day
at 3am and wide awake
these fears were on replay.
But now I’ve put the bottle down
to lift again no more
The wicked grip of alcohol
no longer to the fore
It’s ultra evil influence
laid bare before my eyes
It’s presence an affront to me
and sanity my prize.
