Waking up sober ?
Warm feet
Soft quilt
Hot cup of tea
Zero guilt
No harsh words uttered
Or feelings spilt
Waking up sober and serene
No nightmare dream
Or crazy scene
Just a clear mind
Innocent (mostly 😉)
New and fresh
Like a sparkling stream
Waking with a Smile – Alcohol Free!
Plans for the day
No need to hide away
That overall feeling
Things will be okay
Sober and Serene – a feeling of SOBRENITY
No dark clouds
Lurking around
Just possibilities
Can you hear the sounds?
It’s all about finally feeling the good feelings and noticing the little things
More positive feeling
A little healing?
More actually being
And really seeing
No more denying
No more lying
No more buying
More trying
Less crying?
Sobrenity!
Embrace your life
Its the only one you have
Look for the happy times
The reasons to smile
And to laugh
With sober you notice more of the little things
Which could really be the big things
With alcohol you could miss them completely
You could miss the point really
Alcohol numbs the bad briefly
But it numbs the good too
Life is meant to be lived out loud
Not at lower volume
Tune in and feel – Sobrenity

This poem was composed by Floss The author of The Runaway Train and many more poems that have helped her stick to sober one expressed rather than swallowed word at a time
One response to “Saturday Morning Sober and Serene – Sobrenity!”
[…] I can say, “Okay, I need to work on that. What would be a good first step?” Now that I am alcohol free, I have a sense of clarity. […]
