These Drinks

by Saben_Johnson

Put it in my cup I’ll gulp it all up How much each drink burns my throat I am sure to note Vodka, whiskey, moonshine, rum They all make my emotions go numb. Just give me it all, I promise I won’t fall I will just get high Way, way above the sky. I will get above my depressing emotions These drinks are special healing potions Are these drinks warding off evil, Or are they just hiding feelings that I can’t stand to reveal?
