Poisoned By Love's Alchohol

There is a connective link With a "dirty" martini drink Leaving you "wet" with desire It's effects can take you higher As it enters in your system Sometimes it can you dumb Like your love did one day to me But it was not a good dirty That I felt-the only wet Were the tears that fell and let My heart shrivel up to die Now it is completely "dry" And in a "pit" of despair And you do not even care That I'm hung over for good Wishing that I never would Have gotten so intoxicated I was stupid and not waited To make sure I was not poisoned But my heart just had to join in Tugging and pulling at me Destroyed by a love martini

Being drunk on love is a much better idea than being intoxicated on $8 wine. Enjoy the better of the two. Love the metaphor.
