Drinking never made me a happier person
Nor did it allow me to enjoy my life more
If anything it caused my attitude to worsen
Then in the end I ended up face down on the floor.
It caused me to argue and also to fight
It made me believe that I am someone that I'm not
The drink made me obnoxious and never polite
All from this drink that I had happily bought.
I have done things that I am ashamed to admit
I have spent money that I should have saved
To that addictive drink I did happily submit
To that drink I am hopelessly and forever enslaved.
I’ve waken in the morning with terrible headaches
From the drinking for my relaxation and fun
I know from that drunken state I made many mistakes
And remembering any of them now, I know none.
It doesn't make me smarter and of course no wiser
I know one day it will be my destruction and downfall
It made me a bully a cheat and a womanizer
All from the drink I love, alcohol.
Very nice crafting.Good advice for better standard of life.Grateful to u Sir.
You are so right. Alcohol never made ANYONE happier, smarter or more attractive. Very well written.
Well, I've been at PH since February or March, and this is the 1st poem I've given a 10. Very sadly honest, but very well may help someone else to avoid the pitfall, or climb out sooner. You've already come a long way to being free. I hope you keep writing. If so, you'll write about more beautiful things than this. I enjoyed reading it, and hope to read more.

I would like to translate this poem
and that's the least to be said of alcohol...
