NICOTINE AND ALCOHOL
Addiction taking different courses
Blue sky smokes grey
People’s lives contorted
Whipping wind
Families ripped apart
Lightening shatters the sky
Alcohol drowns sorrows
Rain cascades down
Cigarettes to heal pain
Thunder rolls in
Different brands
Pressing against an old oak door
Acquired tastes
Fresh falling rain fills the air
Trying to develop old relationships
Oak and rain make such a heavenly scent
Giving up on blood
Through the rain faint lights bounce off the drops
Thrill of a needle
Shimmering on a dark night
It’s all downhill fighting.
