      Today I sit here on recovery day number one,

      Unsure if recovery really can be done.

      I loved my slots you see

      But without me noticing they took over me.

      They had this frightening tight grasp

      But I decided today would be the last,

      I am taking my life back

      So slots you have got the sack!

      Whether it’s said
      In prose or verse
      Keep your money
      In your purse
      Day One Recovery,
      Very well done!
      Time to quit
      You’ve had your fun.
      You love the slots when on a roll
      But slots can take your life and soul
      Your peace of mind
      Your pride, your strength
      So kiss them goodbye,
      And write poems at length.

      ( ALL THE BEST IN RECOVERY, ONE DAY AT A TIME)

      Today I went back into the dark
      That dark place that captures me
      The same place that changes me.

      Who am I
      What have I become
      Why does this feel like home
      Like normality

      This time I click refresh
      And start again
      I try
      I try harder

      Now what do I do
      I move forward
      Not backward

      Now is the time to change
      Day one over again
      I can do this
      Will I do this
      This time I can!

      Day 5 feeling rough
      Reading your poems
      Helps me stop
