My Recovery Is Within Me

Written by me and the wife in 2007

I’ve been to recovery,

I tried to take it in,

And I went quite often.

Me and my best friend.

Your recovery is within you,

Your time invested, counts,

It depends on how much you want it,

While your, Clean-Time, surely mounts.

First to get, a Sponsor,

Who’ll work with you, indeed,

Then to start the Book of Steps,

That’s planting a goodly Seed.

By climbing the ladder daily,

And holding to your thought,

You’ll heal yourself greatly,

And see the things, you got.

Your life will come together,

And your heart can even mend,

If you hold the straight and narrow.

Your Addiction’s in the wind.

So if, Recovery, is what you want,

And are willing to do your all.

Pray each day, it stays away,

And see the Writing on the Wall.

I hear your words, Knowman, and I take them to heart. I am recovering at this time and the trails are long. Stay strong, and hope I do the same.
