A Letter To My Recovery Sister's

Dear Sister's,

            I remember when you arrived on that very first day.
You looked really sad and had nothing to say. The pain in your eyes told your story all 
To well. But I knew in my heart you still had a story to tell. When I looked at your face 
I could see your pain. Because what you held inside could drive a sane man insane. You have seen and did a lot of things. Some of them bad. Some of what you did would make a happy person sad. But let me tell you this sister's. Do not despair. 
Now that changing your life you are going somewhere. You have told your story and freed your soul. So put those bad things behind you because now they are old. Now you have pep in your step and your swagger is back. And in a matter of time there will be nothing you'll lack. You are beautiful human being's and you deserve the 
Best. And so far lady's you have past the test. So keep pushing my sister's. Don't stop trying. You already shed your tears so now you can stop crying. By the grace of God you have gone through the fire. If any one says you didn't they're a bold face liar. 
So from the bottom of my heart I know you'll recover. 

                                                              Sincerely yours,
                                                                             Your recovery brother.
