Recovering
The hardest thing I've ever done was admitting my problem in front of someone.
Being there no matter what, helped me numb a huge part of my heart.
Faking my smile while people were around, finding myself face first on the ground.
Truly believing we were friends, I'm giving you up, I want revenge!
I'm all alone with out you around but able to see you weren't friends with me.
I'm changing my people , places, and things
without your help, but I'm not alone.
I am sober and free, clear eyes I can see
all of the hell you were causing me!
Enough is enough! I have to stay tough!
I know it's going to get harder for me.
But living one day at a time gives me relief, allowing myself to deal with my grief.
Finding my faith and something to believe, I'm finally allowing alcohol to leave

I am recovering from being an alcoholic. One year sober May 11th. I've been struggling to be sober for three years and I finally feel that I'm strong enough to do so!
Any addiction is a life long recovery. And it's so easy to feel alone because if those around you have never experienced the same addiction and trying to recover, they don't understand nor know how hard it is. I've got several addiction poems, maybe you'd like to read? Anyway, great poem.
