What Is Drunkenness

WHAT IS DRUNKENNESS? 

As I went for the third beer, my heart
beat dropped with a dubbing sound,
I knew I made a mistake,

I walked into room 4 and find 
out that the people therein are 
quiet and focused on something,
than me who is drunk, 
I begin to make noise and irritate
everyone abruptly. 

Am I not crazy?

No seriously, do I think they 
had nothing to say that they 
had to be all that silent.

When I just got into the room,
there was this total calmness and
now I think I know it all to belittle
the rest.

my drunkenness is leveled at 92% above
the normal human brain. And I think I 
am doing fine.

Have I realized that there is too much
about myself to worry about and maybe
get corrected but I still think this is just
a thing to go along with?
I am worth celebrating for 
my abnormality.

I'm not saying I should think all low 
about myself but, surely I need to read
and understand my feelings and actions.

It’s not only getting drunk and having
those s then I walk on the streets
carrying lots of scraps that tell the
world that I am surely drunk.
No, it's not only that.

I’d love to yawn, better still sleep,
Yet the shape of the monster in me is huge,
Tears land after vomiting but never wash away
its stains

Yes, they were caring and loving guys,
they brought me into my room,
After a few minutes, I caught sleep and
there I was resting my head on a wet
Pillow.
Yes, it’s wet because I had vomited on it

Wake up and go out, its time for breakfast,
Said A voice that I did not clearly recognize
I surely woke up and sat beside my bed 
Dizzy and vomiting.

Now I move on with my life, it was a lesson
And I learned from it, I WILL NEVER DRINK!!!
