Hello my good friend, Darkness!
How have you been?
Me? Oh I've just been a mess.
Going back there time and time again.
Where you ask?
Oh I'm glad you did!
Its the bottom of a flask!
I know I know, God forbid.
I come here from time to time.
Just trying to find somewhere to put my mind.
It beats the pain and agony that puts me in a bind.
But its a better than being left behind.
Now I drink to forget the old!
To make way to new and better!
No this does not make me cold.
But it also does not put me off kilter.
Oh no, is it time for you to go?!
I'm sorry that you couldn't stay long.
Now don't be a stranger, you can always come say hello!
Because you'll always be there if something goes wrong.

I have been drinking a lot more lately. Mostly to help me sleep due to anxiety driven insomnia. Just a beer or two before bed mostly but a few weeks ago I was going to the bar after work four, sometimes five times a week. Spending money I didn't have or having my coworkers buy me drinks. I know I must not become reliant on it but right now its the only thing that is working. Hopefully it'll change.
