This Poem I wrote 7 years ago when I quit using drugs and Alcohol,to help me stay motivated. It is now circulating through the AA community in the area where I live and helping others the same.Also it is circulating through the local Jail. I had sent my brother a copy to help him in Jail,and his inmates really liked it,so I sent him a bunch of copies,and he spread them around.

"The Road To Recovery"
The steps I must take to get well won't be easy.
The road is bumpy,and the air is breezy.
But I must endure this storm till the end.
No lies,no games,tell the truth,don't pretend.

Open my mind to others advice.
You never know,not everyone is as cold as ice.
Open myself for God to come in.
For his help is needed to make it to the end.

My mind is certain that this road will be tough.
However, the benefits of recovery tells me enough.
I can make it,many others have done.
But to do it for myself, I'm the only one.

I've been clean and sober since I wrote this poem,7 years! I hope that it helps even just one person,even more would be great!
