Down the bottle to make me sane
Drink again to numb the pain
Somewhere in my head this isn't right
Doesn't matter what I think, I'm going to drink all night
Down the bottle to forget my fears
Drink again 'till I imagine you're here
I look around to see with all my might
It doesnt matter to me, I have all night
Down the bottle to fall asleep
Drink again to forget my dreams
Try to blink through the dark, since there's no light
Don't worry your pretty head for I have all night

| Brief and very much to the point. The bottle lies and tries to pretend it's a friend, when in reality it is an enemy which continually tries to tear one down. Addictions can be so unkind. |

Dearest banquet bottle
please tell me where did the banquet go
To where the dream first appeared
before it left
You are not it
No one is what they weren't
Yield not this yield not that
Yield no more said the bladder
before the stream
Peace!

I feel ya'. When you look around for reasons NOT to drink, please remember it's your addiction whispering in YOUR ear, (The You you USED to be) that it's okay to go for it.
Try listening to yourself instead of that yacky bottle.
I'm an alcoholic, and I still drink. I'm not preaching here, but I have cut WAY down and haven't stayed up all night in years.
You need a chick- that much is obvious. When you finally quit torturing yourself and do get one, guess what? You'll be like, "What was that other chicks name? Paula ...something..." LOL.

Yes. A vicious circle that for some, never ends. You very cleverly conveyed this in your poem. I like how you also addressed another common 'thorn' in the drunks side- we often are striving for something or someone. The tragedy being that our so-called courage comes from the bottle, and therefore we are forever moving further and further away from our target. It can indeed be quite difficult to see clearly with those beer goggles on.
Thank you for posting. I am sure this poem is appreciated by many more people than you know.
