- "Addiction is a cruel, unforgiving monster, and kudos to anyone that finds and follows the path to recovery. I spent 30 years in a bottle, and owe my entire life to a woman who saw the real me through the alcohol. I've been sober now for 8 years.
I congratulate you on the victory of recovery. Continue to look ahead."

- "Addiction is a bitter mistress and master: It tells you it loves you, while it breaks you apart at your very seams. There should be no shame or remorse in the loss of the feeling you've invited, but there always is. And there is no one way out of it. All have to walk their own path out, if they can find it. Powerful words you've placed here, poet. Thank you."

A year as r for me as well, and as you well know it's a vicious cycle...it controls everything we are and do..one year and I still suffer endless nights, legs swims, not being able to get comfortable, sleep 15 to 29 minutes at a time, so exhausted by day break i collapse for my longest rest...yes i also know of it's toll, my only son of on banging ice..sadly after being clean for a year and making a fatal choice to do it just one more time...he was only 28....it's one hell of a demon to deal with....anyway, it is my pleasure to meet you, . And keep yourself clean !... your write is truth, one we both well know, my work is very different here, as i am and have always been very spiritual....check my work out and you will understand...I walk my own path, and am not concerned in pacifying others lies or deceit, and can see through most, you I sense, are much as like me...us...again, enjoyed your write, 13......"

- "This was great. Good flow, and structure..and you really captured the essence of a sad person on the brink of death... "There he hangs
There he'll stay
A young, troubled boy
Who ran out of things to say" The ending was perfect. xoxo"

- "You can't ever run out of things to say, you have to keep your voice heard. Suicide is a sensitive subject and one thats very close to me. You delivered this very well, flows nicely."

- "I agree with Dominic - Brilliant. We all feel the writer's block and sometimes it takes doing something intense to get the flow started. This poem flowed really way - thanks for writing and sharing!"
