MARATHON

SOMETIMES

Sometimes!

Sometimes I don’t know the day,

Will my body give permission to stay.

Sometimes I’m not sure how to think,

My body cries for one more drink.

Sometimes out the window I look,

I try to sit in a chair and read a book.

Sometimes I wake up and salute the moon,

My head feels heavy, larger than a balloon.

Sometimes I hear people call me a drunk,

I have a date to be placed in Earth’s trunk.

Sometimes I ask who I am, I know not me,

I look in the mirror, a shadow do I see.

Sometimes I’m not the person you knew,

Always be my friend and bring the brew.

Sometimes when the parties over I’m awake,

I promise no more drinks will I ever take!

Sometimes!
