some drink it for its taste
some use it to escape
quenching away the thirst
to drown away the pain
many depend
leaning on it as a friend
to help relieve the hurt sheltered deep within
times when you’re shy
feelings bottled inside
actions can no longer tell
words seem to fail
judgment impaired
boundary lines go unclear
feelings untamed
impulses unrestrained
revealing the true
secrets kept inside of you
actions can no longer hide
swallowing your pride
pouring out your heart
all walls begin to fall
letting down your guards
professing sentiments of love
expressing actions of affection
passion ignites in each kiss
lips slowly confessing
drunk and drenched in love
purifying in each swallow
building shelter
and creating the rain
intoxicated by its taste
driving me insane
quenching my thirst
i drink away the pain
