you get into your car as the morning due drys clear
Your late again, and your boss is mad, and wondering how you got hired
He can tell you drunk, so there goes your job, you just got fired
You go home, and theres bills to pay with money you don't have anymore
The frige is empty so you head to the store
You grab another case of buse
Nowing your credit your gonna loose
Later that night, you head to a bar, and you drink and start to shout
The bartender gets mad, so he throws you out.
Your already mad, and your wifes no help at all
You had a fight when you got home, so she made a police call
She leaves you there and take the kid, fearing for you daughters life
When your drunk, who knowes if you'll grab a knife
So you grab another beer, and you sit alone
You cry in you empty home
Your lifes messed up, you can't sop drinking,
Your wife and daughter's gone and you can't stop thinking
About giving it up, as you put the bottle to you lip,
And drink your last sip. [comments] => 6 [counter] => 193 [topic] => 66 [informant] => dark_fighter_chick [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 11 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => drugabuse )

I would hope the next steps would be to reality. Good write except for a few spelling errors.

I can tell that you like country music don't you! This sounds alot like Whiskey Lullaby, just with a little more background. No matter where you got it from, it's a good story poem. Love::::Kirby
