A Thirst For Sobriety

Deep down I've a thirst
For I don't know what 
A pain that's the worst
For a cure I must hunt
------ -------
The more that I drink
It sinks into ink
Black enough to kill
It shallows my will

The first drink is fun
But I am not done
I'll toast to my friends
A night without end

I can't drink enough
This makes things so tough
The guilt, disappointment
Go numb.Last laugh's enjoyment 
-------------
Was that you for the New Year celebration? 
Never before are drinks so available!
Overcome. There's a sobering education
Let go. Let God! And be fallible!

The path is 12 segments long
Right all who you have wronged
Take time to surrender
It's the way to be strong

Thirst, For your sobriety
Christ can flood your soul with peace
No more baffling cunning slips
Let love in and dignity increase
