153 (31.12.2014)

When drinking was a thing that was so new
That hangovers and stabbing pain weren't known
We shared a litre bottle just us two
And acted like we were both fully grown.
And drunkenness was like a brand new world,
That came to us and sparkled in our eyes
And all our inhibitions they were hurled
Into the darkness of the passing skies.
But now my drink and me are far removed
And vomiting and headaches are all gone
As are the simple truths that drinking proved
And all the little lights that from me shone.
Though paralytic is no more for me,
I still do miss that changed reality.
