10 And A Half Months

Shaunmatthewcpoetry

Not touched alcohol again once, feeling better,

Even though right now it's beer garden weather.

10 and a half months on the soft drinks,

Saved an absolute fortune, me thinks.

Goodbye to blackouts, toodle pip to a hangover,

Here's to extra money in accounts and a day spent sober.

    Shaun, as someone who also no longer drinks, I know exactly where you are. The heart and mind remember while society carries on drinking around us...but ten and a half months is one hell of a feat! Be proud, my friend. I certainly am proud of you. DM me if you ever feel the need to commiserate. We’re in this together! 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

      Good message. Alcoholism can be a huge problem for people. Not just on the budget.
