Some people call the taste toxic
However I call it relief,
The feeling as that intoxicated liquid rushes down my throat.
Even if it is only for a little while
Just the feeling of my body and emotions getting overpowered with numbness
Is just pure and reassuring
Almost as if it is telling me "don't worry"
"Just worry about your problems later"
Or "have a drunken cry"
I was never able to chug you know
But now I can gush it down my throat like it is the most refreshing water
It shocks and worries me really
My liver screaming in agony for me to stop
At least just for one day
But hey
I guess that it just what I get for my obsession with the toxic madness.

That's life
sometimes we do things which are bad for us, and at the time that is our only way of being able to cope .. even tho it is bad for us, it brings us some type of relief but we always feel guilty because we know its wrong , and yet we still do it . a well expressed and truthful piece of writing em x
