_{It's hard remembering
all the sedatives and
medication behind that smile.

Wine and
promiscuity to
follow,
surely this isn't
what you pictured.

When alcohol is involved
that body becomes
oh so dangerous

and some times
the allure
was just too much.

Even when I didn't
want it I could
still taste it.

Sweet though,
something it always
was, even when
it was bitter.

You'd always
get your way, that's
something
we can depend on.

Even when you
weren't
dependable.

Which was often the case.

I wanted it
and you
wanted it

and the only
difference now
is that
the balance
has shifted,

the weight wasn't
lifted

and at the end
of the day, picturing
myself without
you
is no longer a problem.}
