Wine.
The exhilaration it gives at just a glance
A sip for courage
Two sips for satisfaction
Yet still feels lacking...
Third sip... Fourth sip...
Endless refills...
A glass of expensive wine.
Sips of addiction
More and more bottles of expensive wine
Gulps of over indulgence
Yet still feels inadequate
A glass of red wine.
Many gulps to drown out the sorrows
For the head to be giddy and light
To finally head off to slumber land
For the mind to be drowsy
To escape the harsh reality
And not feel hollow
Glass.
Spend a night vomiting
Spend days regretting
Yet when the darkness arrives
The vicious cycle repeats
An unstoppable addiction it is.
