Alcoholic

A Poem

By Arizandy R.Published 8 years ago • 1 min read

His anger is his biggest quality,

maybe it's because of the whiskey on his breath,

his drinking problem is a concept he cannot accept.

His energy is dark and I feel it through my soul.

He says he will quit, but this is something I've already been told.

I wonder why he can't leave the drink of death,

his liver is turning black, leading him to his last breath.

He says he wants to die, just to know whats on the other side.

He thinks my mother is waiting for him as his bride.

He misses her so he drinks,

which is ironic I think,

because the person that killed my mother was a drunk driver,

leaving my dad as the lonely survivor.
