Each human has an outlet in their life to relieve stress
Some people keep it in moderation, others give up and give in
To the point where they lose control of their life
I have two options: Let it kill me or get help
I chose my fate and ended up in this room-
It houses my second family
I stand up and state my name
3 years 9 months and 16 days
7 days more than last week
Everyone claps out of support
It’s a little reassurance in my head that I’m on the right path
My current status is step 4
It reminds me of a resume
Bringing up my past, even when I don’t want to remember it
It’s all the jobs I could never complete
But not this one, my recovery isn’t my job anymore
It’s a way of life
