Beyond Sobriety Poem by Matt Mondschein

Beyond Sobriety



Here we go again
Back to a world of insanity
Question
To drink or not to drink
Return to bitterness
Another calamity

So well a gift of sobriety
For a brief blink of this alcoholics eye
How can this happen?
To a husband, father, fiend or foe

I am clueless once again
Recovery is history
One day at a time
Take it easy
Let go and let GOD
Gone

In my spiritual sense
How many times, oh LORD
Can forgiveness
Save my soul

How many times
I think not
To drink and then again
Death is at my door
As I booze
Once more
