The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Alcohol

Alcohol is a substance he loves but at times hate.
He loves it whenever he consumes it during good times,
He goes to every party in town until it is late,
His heart yearns for more than that of yesterday's.

What would partying be without alcohol


Some of us are just like him but somehow we have our own reasons.
Whenever problems arises some to Alcohol and some
Turn to the Bible and then go to that verse that speaks about alcohol and then we also drink because the Bible said we can drink but don't get drunk

Even though you feel like you don't wanna drink you think you are forced because you just want to forget about your misery and have a peaceful night for once , so you drink until you fall flat on your face .
  you wake up the next morning only for your mind to jump straight to the issue that made you drink in the first place and then you realize that you caused more problems in your intoxicated state, maybe you caused an accident or damaged someone's property
What now ?
So alcohol only added to your troubles .

Natalie, it is well-done. Your point is valid. " you wake up the next morning only for your mind to jump straight to the issue that made you drink in the first place " And you are correct, when we are in the throes of being drunk, our judgements are off enough, we might have hurt or even killed people. So dangerous!
