Recovery from me…

Graphic by Bruna Costa

The decision to do so

didn’t come quickly 

It was like a sneeze 

so to a sponsor

and meetings 

I must go

Avoiding relapse

makes the will of any man

superhuman strong

Thinking I can win 

this battle alone

would be an attempt 

that ends oh so wrong

Getting rid of cravings

has to be a blessing

only sent from heaven

and just think —

that one relapse

will put me back

at the beginning
