Drinking Life To Being Sober

Drinking life to being sober

My drinking life is over
It was not as fun as I thought it would be
I am now loving being sober
This is the new me

It placed me in places I don’t want to be
People have really worried about the life I was living
I am no longer the monster living inside of me
People did not have to be so forgiving

Hi Marisa, Stopping by with a nice, sweet Welcome to Poetry Soup. I will get much delight, in reading and in time become familiar with your verse. As for now, I will greet you with the same smile, others passed, when I first join the soup 4 years ago. I wish you the best when it comes to your compositions. I hope you get to meet all the nice poets around here. Starting with me. SKAT :-) Please drop a hello and tell me a little about yourself if you wish. I would like to be your newest poetry soup "FRIEND" Hugs* SKAT
