When Liquor Hit My Brain

When liquor hit my brain

it enlivened me with great memories.

Then suddenly this mutagenic liquor

stole away my peace and quiet

with storms past done and not accepted.

It messed up my chemistry.

Now I am a befuddled concoction

unsure and intertwined with illusions of superiority.

I wish I could reverse time

and claim my sober.

But,

I’m too far gone.

Wait.

I’ll forgive myself

because too far gone

doesn’t exist in this universe.

There’s a place inside me

pulsing and ripe for salvation.

XO,

Laveet
