Do I Have An Alcohol Problem?
I wake up in a panic
No desire to start my day
Thinking of last night
Oh God, what did I say?
Do I have an alcohol problem?
I chug a glass of water
On the table beside my bed
I recognize hangover symptoms
Starting with
My pounding head.
Do I have an alcohol problem?
I head into the bathroom
My system is not right
At one glance in the mirror
I hate the ugly sight.
Do I have an alcohol problem?
I head downstairs for coffee.
Not sure I can stand the taste.
My mouth, an awful feeling,
As if I’ve eaten paste.
Do I have an alcohol problem?
I start to make kid lunches
Throwing stuff into bags,
Seeing the mess of the night before
Feeling like a nag.
Do I have an alcohol problem?
I rush the kids out the door,
