Drunk

Folder: 
story of my life

I'm a little love drunk
I took too much this time
I was too afraid to stop
too afraid to let go of the high.

I knew I was addicted
but I just couldn't put the bottle down
it made me very sick
all I ever did was frown.

I needed that feeling
the one that made me cry
the one that was so precious to me
I was oblivious as to why.

I'm a little love sick
I'm lucky I'm alive
I might go over the edge
for the feeling that I strive.

I take the wrong medicine
to numb away the pain
how could I feel nothing?
Am I even sane?

The drunkness messed with my head
it told me it was my fault
I should have seen ahead
my sickness was curable without a doubt.

I still stumble to my bed
though I'm sober anymore
the urge for the drunkness to come back
as I pass out on the floor.

I'm a little hungover
I promise I wont do it again
but I know I'll think about it
No matter where this may end.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

the metaphore is that the drunkness was my boyfriend, and he made me feel like this, and now this is what Im suffering from after the break up
