Don’t wait up for me tonight
Me and this bottle are going around
And before the night is over
One of us is going to win
Don’t try to help me cope
I have to do this alone
Alone…except for this bottle
It’s the one thing that is always there
Follows me thru my life
Like a monkey on my back
And before this night is done
Me or the bottle is going to go
And it’s something I need to do alone
Alone
Except for this bottle
And this need
Don’t wait up for me
Its going to be a long night
Sue you captured the drinker's thoughts in this poem and through the words his/her underlying pain and aloneness. Advice is easy to give but some things just need to be done by themselves. (or with a bottle)
I knew that particular monkey - haven't gotten rid of them all - but I knew that particular one, and a load of other guys who were weighed down by the same type. That's just one beast we struggle with. Someone once said to me that there are also two dogs fighting inside us for control. Whichever one we fed the most won. Yeah, life can be one heck of a long lonely dark night. Not much comfort I know, but you know the score only too well. Thank you for sharing. Thinking about you.
