Intoxication

Undeniably sobriety is a grand old thing, but to me its only another thing that stands in the way of bringing myself out of me.
A toke or sip or pop of a pill and suddenly I'm no longer alone, free of the ill of the mind and the binds that constrains my thoughts to my bones
I can think without the hindrance that my inhibitions brought and all it takes is a drop, well maybe more than one but the point is that a door
Opens in my head and I'm free to wander, understand the sonder and come to grips with what I need to do, all from a few sips through the lips
And I can talk myself out of suicide and I can become enlightened, I can bring another side of my personality that brightens the entire room
I'm another person when my vertigo worsens and I can hardly see, but I think im a better person when I'm not the person I was born to be.
