Taste of an Alcoholic
Ah that taste,
The taste of pain released.
The wet sinking of carelessness.
Numbing,
Numbing the pain.
Taking away all of life's worries.
Bringing to me euphoria.
Oh the morning,
The morning of such pain to endure the drink.
And, depression marks me again.
The empty,
Empty life with no out.
Opening,
Opening the bottle again.
Just let me drink, and hope it takes me away....

I'm not an alchoholic but I have taken this particular pain reliever a few times before, and you describe it perfectly...

Great poem. Especially when you realize that it has a hold on you and you continue to drink. It's at that point that true loneliness seeps in.
