Drunk Till Death Poem by Marcquiese Burrell

</>life swallows you wholly
and to escape that realm
you then turn to me
downing sip after sip
glass after glass
You can't get enough
your dependent on me
physically and mentally you going through withdraws
with a level reading.25 percent
slowly i'm weakening your defenses leaving you numb
there's so much of me in your system
Dr.'s feeling like you need to detox
but you'll let your thirst for me control you
and you'll let your thirst for me mentally hold you
there's no escaping it
submit to your own wants and needs
you want me, you need me, I provide you with the grand escape
let me intoxify you
Poison your insides
allow me to taint your heart
I'll kill you silently and slowly
in your mind you believe that i'm harmless
but i'm already doing damage
Drink me until you pass into thin air
I'm all that you need
