this is a poem i wrote one day, when i was trying to understand my how alcoholics think and react......not sure how true it is.

 

I AM Sober

This is how I see the alcoholic

CONSUMED, LIQUID HELL MY MIND SATURATED…EMPTY                I am sober     VOICES OF REASON YOUR SCREAMS DROWN OUT     I am sober     YOU ARE A COAT OF MANY COLORS   A THIEF IN THE NIGHT       I am sober     LONELINESS, DESPERATION   IVE BEEN ON MY KNEES       I am sober       LONELINESS, DESPERATION   IVE NOT GIVE A DAMN       I am sober       I HIDE,   YOU ALWAYS FIND ME       I am sober       PULLING ME INTO YOUR HELL       I am sober       I STARE YOU IN THE FACE   I SMELL YOUR POISON       I am sober       YOU SEDUCE ME LIKE   NO OTHER…       I am sober       I KNOW HOW TO COUNT TO   TWELVE…   I HAVE FOR YEARS       I AM SOBER       I AM NOT CURED   I AM SOBER  ....
