This poetry was written while working as a Substance Abuse Counselor. My clients felt they had reached the bottom. They felt like everyone saw them as worthless. I saw them respond to anyone that would take the time to truly believe they could get well, and become productive members of society, to find love and acceptance once again. The last section was written after I retired and I began writing about my feelings, about my experiences as we traveled.
