We need to cool any overboard feeling,
lest it flip us back into the drink.
It is easy to consider yourself an exception
to this generalization.
Newly sober; you may earnestly believe
that you have at long last found real love --
or that your present attitude of dislike,
persisting even into sobriety, means there
was always something fundamentally wrong
about the relationship.
In either instance, you may be right --
but just now, it's wise to wait and see
whether your attitude will change.
Keep your sobriety first to make it last.
