18 months (sobriety poem)

​18 months of sobriety 
How did I reach this place? 
I haven’t got a clue,
Well yes I do!
It was through mercy and grace
Thank you Lord, I can now seek and embrace. 

I want to be with you Lord 
I want to face the struggles with more in reserve, 
This is a moment which I need to celebrate…. As I now look to serve.

I am now fighting the fight 
I am now winning… and not looking back, 
I have my resolve but It’s the Lord who shan’t allow me to slack.

18 months and counting
I never wanted to hit the drink and drugs on how hard I hit, 
The Lord believed in me, as I no longer feel hit.

“18 months sober”
