My Angelic Demon
My Angelic Demon
written June 13th, 2009
Drinking is my Angelic Demon
The alcohol puts out the flames
The fire that engulfs my heart
Numbing the pain
That surrounds my life.
It stills my shaky hands
Clots my open wounds
Focuses my wandering mind
Calms my worried soul
To Quit
or Try To Forget
Is not a fair exchange
The impossible choice to make.
Each day is a battle
Only losing to win
The losing battle…
Again Tomorrow, it will begin.
