Whiskey

Whiskey  
took to many shots
lost my mind for a bit
didn't care to have it back
just the thought alone was enough to keep me drinking
keep me numb
lost in the bottle just like my dad
he always said I was his daughter
although I liked the mailman more than him
he had candy and always smiled
that big tooth smile that reached his eyes
my dad's eyes where always dead
hollowed out from years of fucking up
and never fixing a damn thing he broke
including me
it all worked out anyways pops
You where right
the whiskey does keep the demons at bay
until I get to the bottom
then they fuck with my head just like you did
and they win
just like you did
