Alcohol (mention of SH.) - September 26th 2015, 10:04 PM

This thread has been labeled as triggering by the original poster or by a Moderator. Please take this into consideration before continuing to read.

Would you like a drink, you ask me so,
I deny the offer, after thinking through,
That yes please would be answer,
But I think about the disasters,
That happened when I used to be an alcoholic,

Drinking every day from 7am,
Falling asleep at 6pm,
Crying for hours because I couldn't breathe,
Disappearing from the house,
Because I was in a dream,

Lying to you all and never seeing the truth,
That when I drink I destroy myself and you too,
Cutting deep and feeling low,
Wishing all that I could so,
To disappear and not be see through,

But I went on a journey to detox my body,
To let it come out and go away from my soul,
I had hot sweats with shivers and shakes,
Threw up with headaches,
And had a set routine of being medicated,

And now I try to stay as strong as I can,
Keep the devil away and stand up,
To become free of this and free through the night.
But the thoughts come back, how I want it so,
To take me down and lead me to hell.


’Happiness can be found in the darkest of times, if only one remembers to turn on the light.’

I really like how you expressed yourself Jess.
It's tough to stay strong, but you can do it! I know you are stronger than alcohol.

It's beautifully written and I hope you write more, write more of your feelings.

Disappearing from the house,
Because I was in a dream,
Love that part! You're really good at expressing yourself; keep posting your poetry.


If clarity's in death, then why won't this die?
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts
Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first

This definitely tells a story.


Do you ever get a little bit tired of life
Like you're not really happy but you don't wanna die
Like you're hanging by a thread but you gotta survive
'Cause you gotta survive
