Description Today I woke up sober
From being passed out all day
I realized this binge isn’t over
And I’ve got so much more to take

Perception is skewed in this state
I woke up and hit the bottle
I started drinking right away
I didn’t dawdle

But I could already see
I didn’t drink as much as I thought
I have had a lot to drink
Mom’s never here, so I don’t get caught

But who gives a fuck
About that fucking bitch
What?
She's a mother-fucking trick

Early AFI, black flag
Oi polloi, and anti-flag
Paint the soundtrack
Noise, noise mind trash

I go through these fantasies
Getting married, warped tour
Tsunamis and Polynesian seas
Who knows what these thoughts are for?

I'm on a binge
Can you tell?
The taste makes me cringe
Yesterday I didn't stop until I fell

Today there’s more than I thought
Was left to take
Why is there so much alcohol?
I just drink it all away

Away

Life is a blur
Like middle school
Like a straw, or in my sleep, I stir
My dreams and substances are cruel

I'm so small
I'm so weak
I can't stop
I've always met defeat...

your rhymes are holding you back, you should try some free verse and see where that gets you, just for a change

Thats just how I write, espoecially when intoxicated, as I obviously was when I wrote this. I don't "try" writing, i just do it. Besides which, this poem is a year old, Most of the other work I have posted is newer. Why don't you check that out. I do a little freeverse, but like I said, it seems unnatural to me. I only write freeverse when i am feeling especially uninspired but need to get something off my chest. I suppose freeverse is my way of forcing art. Everyone is different.

I'm pretty comfortable with my writing style as is.
