Thinking

Here I sit just thinking just thinking
I’ve given up drinking
Way too much time wasted
What was I thinking

It started with one or two
Then it was a few here a few there
It slowly took over
It became a crutch a needed item

With each drink I lost more of me 
Till there was no more me
I had vanished into a bottle
I was weakened with each drink
What was I thinking

Becoming less and less free
Imprisoned in a cage made by me
What was i thinking

A prison that locked me away
Away from friends away from family
All the while I didn’t see
The monster I was becoming
Vague memories of the man I was
