A Christmas Poem

The pills were all lined up
In the cabinet with care
In hopes that one of them
Would tame that big bear

And if that didn't work
There was always the booze
Anxiety couldn't withstand
I had nothing to lose

But as I kept drinking
A strange thing did happen
The anxiety got worse
And I felt more trapped in

The promise of booze
Became a huge lie
And if I didn't quit
I knew I would die

So I rose from my chair
And threw out the poison
And exclaimed to the world
I had something to rejoice in

SR was my helper
My constant go to
And for that I am grateful
For having all of you!

Merry Xmas to All and a Sober Good Night!
