Dear *****

Dear *****

These words I regret to send,

Without them I fear my end,

You're always with me in troubled times,

Without you I can’t write these heartfelt rhymes,

You’re 80 proof positive I have a problem,

Though, the more I seek you the less you’ll solve ‘em,

Without you in my life I cry,

With you I know I’ll surely die,

I know I’ll miss your warm embrace,

Please leave my life without a trace,

You've taken so much without return

This position you did not earn,

You entered my world with love lost,

Though your presence here is at a cost,

It’s morning now once again,

Oh how I wish I could abstain,

This whole night long all I think,

Is how I need just one last drink
