Your poem says it all every line speaks volumes in what it's like to conquer sobriety and all the feelings of strength, worthiness, hope, clarity, awareness, motivation.....but also the feelings of despair, frustration, feeling low, negative talk, inadequacy.....We dont always feel 100&% and have different days and mixed emotions, life challenges our sobriety in many ways which is good because it strengthens us and we need to remind ourselves just that when we have our weak/low days, this is what keeps us going in seeing all we have came though..Ty I really enjoyed your poem.
