Poems
Apr 2018
Substance
This liquor held hostage in my hand
With no choice but to listen to me
Follow instructions and steps
Easy as one, two and three.
The cigar that burns my lungs
Listens to what's in my heart
Without hesitations
I am validated to the mark
The substance stays with me
Through ups and downs
Right on the spot
Relieves me from frown
Now you're asking me why
I should stop and think about
These vices kept me alive for years
Trusting my will without a doubt
Now you're telling me
That I'm a lonesome bloke
Broke and bleeding
But first let me drink this coke.
