Now you're in recovery.

Started writing and came up with this.. If you're not in recovery you're essentially dying 🤷‍♀️ there is no going back to who you used to be, you've been through too much, you have to build yourself into a completely new person. 💖

Now you're in recovery what will you do?
For the person you once were is no longer you,
You are not in crisis every other day, 
Though is it hard to keep your demons at bay, 
Recovery is a long road and you must steer, 
But in years to come this will all seem clear, 
For you have fought a battle that some don't survive, 
And there will be times your life will take a dive, 
But you will pick yourself up and dust yourself off, 
For rock bottom you cannot stay, with a bottle of smirnoff, 
This will be the hardest thing you have to do, 
But the view from the top won't always be so blue, 
Cause if you don't recover from your illness, 
You may not see another Christmas, 
It wants to destroy you and everything you are, 
And the biggest fuck you is to get in your car, 
Turn that baby around and step on the gas, 
Get away from your demons, finally, at last, 
If only it was that easy, this journey will be hard, 
But it won't always be this way, you won't always be scarred, 
You will build yourself into a new person, 
Someone who is strong, determined and not so nervous, 
Now you're in recovery, what will you do?
You are a new person, that's over, phew!
