I’m sorry
I’ve been drinking again
but these demons have returned
to inflict their pain,
with louder voices
and harsher words
to drive me insane.
They’ve come back
to their usual haunt
with their mocking tones
and merciless taunts
but I don’t want to
listen to their screams
in my mind as they jaunt.
I know you hate
seeing me this way
as I drink myself blind
and lead myself astray
but I’d rather be drunk
than in another hospital bed
just because I couldn’t keep
these demons at bay.
