Another battle with the bottle <br />And this time I won't lose <br />I sip this bottle of vodka <br />Stopping when I choose <br /> <br />I'm not an alcoholic <br />I can control what I take in <br />If people all around me <br />give me a chance, <br />I can win.. <br /> <br />I know I can beat the bottle <br />And yes, <br />I've paid my way <br />It's temptation calling <br />I'm gonna win <br />tonight <br />ok? <br /> <br />I'm not an alcoholic <br />People take me <br />for who I am <br />I can beat this demon <br />I'll just take <br />another dram. <br /> <br />I'm not an alcoholic <br />I swear to you I'm not <br />But this bottle <br />I have before me <br />Is the only one I got. <br /> <br />I can always stop <br />tomorrow, <br />In fact, <br />will start my battle then. <br /> <br />But until tomorrow's <br />calling <br />I'll just take one more <br />drink again.<br /><br />Wayne Leon Learmond<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-m-not-an-alcoholic/
