This goes out to all <br />Men who drink alcohol <br />What’s the shame on saying, “ I don’t drink? ” <br />What’s the shame on saying, “ I have enough? ” <br />Is it cos they will not call you tough? <br /> <br />For sure, behind your back they call you bastard <br />After all what does it make you <br />Drinking zillion bottles of beer? <br />But a drunkard <br /> <br />You pay to drink and you will not be able to stand <br />All the results you know it like the back of your hand <br />When you run out of money these people will laugh <br />And live to hear your loud cry <br />Your last wish will be for time to turn back <br />Sooner or later you will understand that you just run out of luck <br />Remembering the good times you would say “ My life suck” <br /> <br />As a sign of your life full of despair <br />You will start loosing your hair (or your hair will turn gray) <br />Every step you take every heartbeat ‘n breath <br />At a speed of light get you closer to death. <br /> <br />24 October,2005<br /><br />Konjit Berhane<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/why-get-drunk/
