new poem

"UNTITLED"
You can live like a liar
And be alone some day
You can play with fire
and the words that you say
I hate a hypocrite
Almost as much as hell
They make me so mad
I just want to yell
Ive been both
A hypocrite and a liar
Ive let my morals
Be sidelined by desire
Ive forgotten what it is
That make me, me
And replaced it with
A twist of reality
You can run on like a thief
Stealing your way through
You can live like a chief
With none of the stress due
You can abuse alcohol
And live to drink
you can watch yourself fall
and forget how to think
ive been both
and alcoholic and a burglar
I let my morals
Be forgotten by vodka nectar
Ive forgotten why I am
The best there is, was and will be
And almost allowed
My desires to kill me
I hate the things I once was
I hate the way I chased a buzz
But I wouldn’t change what I did
Cause I learned my lessons as a kid
And they teach me still
They are the backbone to my will
The examples I need to remind me
And one more way for me to find me

I wrote this poem today, i was trying to justify one of my freinds actions as of late. i wont go into details but it's been very strange and compelling. I am worried about him and the paths and choices he's been making as of late. during these thoughts though i started to think of my past trangressions and realized that there are things i learned as a child that he's probably not learned yet or is just learning.
