For a few hours at least till it all comes rushing back and worse than before.
Alcohol became my rebound

The thing that distracts me.
The thing that I convince myself how much I love.

Trying to scam myself.
It's the thing that winds up reminding me of how irresponsible I am and why I lost the most important things in my life in the first place.
