to use alcohol to unwind
but I have no other choice
I have no real voice

I appear stable and strong
but it's an act all along
I am nothing but a sad mess of feelings
who can't cope with life's dealings

I try to be me,
and let no one see
that I am nothing more
than life's emotional whore

I let it win time after time
then try to show it using rhyme
When people tell me I am good
I know I would stop if I could

because I am not glad
for my life to sound so sad
and I know you don't smile
as I put myself in denial. [comments] => 2 [counter] => 251 [topic] => 48 [informant] => poetichybrid [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

This is a good piece as well. I've tended to the drink for the same reasons - but I hope you're not like that anymore... Life is for the living mate - if ppl let you down, it's their failing - not yours.
Most just seem unable to think to any real depth and the person who can generally feels very isolated - that's at least how I've seen my situation.
Another good one!
