Stop

I'm taking a break from all this hustle.
My mind is in a swirl, my nerves in a bustle.
My thoughts are scattered like a broken puzzle.
My mouth just won't stop, I need a muzzle.
I think i need a good big guzzle,
And you beside me just to snuggle.

This is why I no longer drink alcohol "My mouth just won't stop, I need a muzzle."

Thanks, seems so much to do and no time to do it. But honestly I wouldn't have it any other way! Well perhaps a break now and then. lol
