Drinking my life away

January 8, 2013
By Anonymous

I go to sleep drunk,















And wake up smel-















ling like alcohol. Ha















te feeling like junk.















Family hates me
After all. So why should I give a f***?

An Alcoholic, Who has the worst of luck,



going in and out of jail,



which I hate and sucks.

Realizing I fail.

I still drink my life away.
Making me look pale.
I’m not perfect, but one day,
I know that I’ll be okayyyyyy.
