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
 ....
