WITHDRAWAL
Aleja Bennett
As I sit here today im going through withdrawal
from alcohol and thats not even all.
I have to face reality
and live life normally.
Straight and sober I have to deal with lifes ups and downs
finally learn to stand my own ground
Boy how scary this sounds.
Now I have to hold my head up
and tell negative people to
shut the hell up.
Boy, how I would like to have a nice
cold vodka with orange juice.
then what will that do?
What will it prove?
Nothing.
Aint that something.
The taste is good and the feeling it brings
but im suppose to be sober to be on top of things.
I can't do this high or drunk
I lose focus, blackout and do things
that I would never ever normally do.
Trust me that ain't kool. In the end
I feel just like a silly fool.
When you think about the things you have done
getting high, you wont keep repeating it
because those terrible memories will get you by.
After my last blackout I said no more
but i said that several times before.
Death is not what I want
I would love to live
and live to love
not live to drink
See what happens when you
stop getting high, you think.
