A Trip Down Recovery Road

When darkness fades, and light begins
To seep into the soul’s deep wounds within
You’ll know you’ve stepped into recovery’s gate
Where healing blooms, and a new path awaits

Your eyes, once dim, now shine with hope
As fears and doubts began to creep in
The weight that pressed upon your chest
Began to lift, and you can finally rest

Your voice, once silenced, now speaks clearly
As you reclaim your story, year by year
The shame that bound you starts to unwind
As self-compassion and love entwine

Your heart, once broken, starts to mend
As forgiveness and self-care become your friend
The world, once overwhelming, now feels kind
As you learn to navigate, one step at a time

You’ll notice changes, subtle yet grand
A sense of peace, a newfound land
Where self-awareness and growth entwine
And the beauty of life becomes divine

Recovery’s journey is not always predictable
But with each step, you’ll find you’re stronger and clearer
So hold on to hope, and don’t let go
For in recovery’s light, your true self will glow.
