Alcohol

you're my alcohol.

i drank you to forget you

just like how some people who can't get rid of their feelings

wants someone to break their heart again

just so they can move on.

but, it never seemed to work

because i was unaware it was you.

the way you made me feel butterflies

in my tummy,

warming me up for the chilly wind,

the hurt you gave my liver,

the feeling of having to

release you from my insides

and the drowsiness of being addicted to you,

hurt me.

but, i hated to admit it

so i drank more of you.

but you just wouldn't let me go,

hurting my head like a hangover

'cause, seriously, i was unaware it was you.

but the way you looked made me drink more

of you

'cause you're my alcohol.
