Sober Quest Pt. 4: Recovery

The final day of treatment came the celebration was about to begin
this was an emotional day and Jack's journey had come to an end
last night he had prepared a poem to read at the ceremony
he was going to read it to express his appreciation solely
the celebration was starting and everybody had arrived
each had a speech to deliver along with their goodbyes
Jack decided to go last because he felt that it was best
to allow all of his emotions to roam free he would let
however it was now his turn and he was more than ready
for the poem he was about to read was emotionally heavy
'When I first came here I was lost and in the dark.'
'I was nervous, afraid and my world was falling apart
'You guys have shown me the light so now I'm gonna make it shine.'
'The motivation that you've given me is almost impossible to define.'
'I don't know where I would be without your support and care.'
'This place I like to call heaven because it's much better there.'
'This is the real me and I am now baring my soul to you.'
'At first I was reluctant but you found a way through
and many years from now when I look back and reflect
forever I'll cherish these memories and I'll never forget.'
everyone clapped enthusiastically as they wiped away their tears
for they had never heard something so heartwarming and sincere
