*Your sacred Freind-A bottle of Gin*

I smell it from your breath,

I smell it from your skin,

Your sacred friend,

You bottle Gin,

It has now become your deadly sin,

It has become destructive,

It's killing everything,

I knew you were bad,

Tell me Why you were feeling so sad?

I told you not to do it,

Why must you put me through all this stupid shit?

You made a confession,

and told me it was your depression,

Theres nothing i could do,

Im 500 Miles away from you,

When i was young you and mummy gave me to somebody new,

You sit there in that chair,

No expression just a vacant stare,

Your clothes they are falling from you,

Not even a lace was in your shoe,

The tears they fall from your face,

No health within you Not even a trace,

Eventually you lay there in intensive care,

It has got the best of you,

Your helpless, theres nothing you can do,

As i enter the room,

I feel nothing but gloom,

You weigh almost nothing,

Your irritating blankets you keep pushing and shoving,

I hold your hand,

I cannot bring myself to cry,

Dont do this dad,

Please dont die,

Why did you drink?

I wish you would think,

All these machines attached to your body,

And slowly in pumps the morphines,

I love you dad,

I promise im not mad,

Pull through this,

I'll give you one final kiss,

As i leave the door,

I cant cope with this anymore,

I dont want to smell it again,

I dont want to hear it was ever your friend,

Your sin that put you here,

Your sin it strikes my fears,

Your only sin,

That bottle of Gin.
