My demons are alcoholics

My demons are alcoholics

A Poem by Thisismythearpy
"

This is what I write about when I'm drunk. It was meant to be an ukulele song I believe, though I do not recall that night very well.

"
Unfortunately my demons are alcoholics just like me
Drinking up all the whiskey
I put inside of me 

I wish to be too intoxicated to breathe
But on that these demons always feed
Drowning so many sorrows in cheap whiskey
Trying to make my heart not beat

So with that these demons have a party

Passing glasses
All day passes 
 They’re watching my relapses
As a pile of bottles amasses

Behind the closet door

So when the demons are thirsty
They wish for more to drink
They replay the memories
That make me not want to think

So pop another top
Avoid a another cop
As I stumble down the street

Drink drink drink yourself
Painfully to sleep 
Merrily merrily merrily 
Life is but a monstrosity

Waking up in the morning
The demons are not hungover 

They are ready for the new day 

Lifting out of bed
 With a pain in my head

I do not feel the same
