Does Drinking and Sensitivity Combine

My oversensitivity 
And the way you've been with me
Are not a good combination
When your drunk and always starting
With the words that make me cry
No matter how hard I try
To not let it get me down
My emotions come around
Knocking me over so hard
I can never disregard
These feelings that pop up
When I see you with a cup
Filled with liquor turning you
Into someone dark and new
Wishing I could find a place
To hide when you get booze faced
So I don't have to endure
This side of you that I abhor
But my heart is on my sleeve
And I will not learn or leave
The love I have is too strong
Even when your doing wrong
Desertion is not an option
Years have got me way too lost in
This relationship to drop
All the love inside my heart
That's overflowing with my care
I will never disappear
Working on a way to find
Help so you can leave behind
A bad habit that has been
The only issue that must end
So we can live happily
No more booze or sensitivity
Will keep us from our destined path
To have a love that always lasts

The reader can tell that you are a very caring person with a good heart, who only wants the best for those she loves. This is another one of your poems that unfortunately, I can relate to. Keep up the great work, Robin!...Thank you so much for all of the wonderful comments today!

You write so sincerely from the heart that I cannot tell if you are writing fiction or from true life experience. I hope this is fiction. Well done.
