The Alcohol Seems To Go Straight To Her Head Poem by Francis Duggan

The alcohol seems to go straight to her head
And after she regrets some of the things she has said
When she has had one too many with her words she can be cruel
For her mental pain alcohol is like a fuel.

Through alcohol she has lost many a friend
That seems such a sad way for a friendship to end
But cruel words can cause hurt and be hard to forgive
And remain with their victims for as long as they live.

Yet she is a nice person so generous and kind
And her very equal might be hard to find
But alcohol to her is a no no since it changes her complete
And when drunk with her words she is never discreet.

Since it brings to the surface her anger within
Her battle with alcohol is one she must win
Her drinking it would seem is out of control
It is bad for her health and poison to her soul.

For her part she has vowed to give alcohol away
I will fight my demons she has been known to say
And 'tis said self appraisal to success can lead
And in conquering her demons she well may succeed.
