Alcoholism
Today I sat all alone
tired but wide awake
I was quietly crying to myself
but felt a sudden shake
I wasn't sure if I was tired
or just in need of drink
but suddenly it worried me
and made me stop and think
my body was crying out for help
I was ignorant I know
but these things we let happen
when we let our bodies
we only have one chance in life
of which were all aware
so love your body tenderly
for it needs your loving care
