         Such a sneeky one you are, you
           suducer of the mind.
         You claimed my body and my soul,you
            made me only want you and noone
         or nothing else would do. You made
             me feel so giddy, so wonderful
         and brave,until I had to have you
             each and everyday.When I
         brought you to my lips I felt such
              sheer delight again and again
          I tasted you until I had to say
              goodnight. You came befor my
          husband, you came befor my kids.I
              tried so hard to stay away
           but,I had to let you in. You played
              with my mind and oh how I craved
           you.I thought of you every second of
              the day, you convinced me
           I could not live unless I had you in me.
               Such a sneeky one you are, but
           your such an ugly beast. You destroy
                every life you touch draining them
           of everything,leaving nothing in your
                wake only empty shells of people
            addicted to your love. I talk not of
                 a person or any living thing.
           This suducer has a name we all know as
                       ALCOHOL.

First, let me welcome you to Passions! Second, let me thank you for providing us a poem filled with a powerful message! An evil demon it can be. I've experienced the repercussions of excess and understand. Thank you,

Christopher

Welcome to Passions!! The end of this poem really says it all in that one word. How alcohol does rob, steal,and destroy. Thanks for sharing. Well written and a powerful message too!!

This is a great poem, and I have to say, I diidn't catch the ending till the last minute. Very good writing. Also, thank you for your kind comments to my poem.

Britt...I didn't follow it either...until the end. I like that (as some of my poems will attest). Like alcohol, anything to excess will ensnare an addictive personality...some drink, some gamble, some do drugs....all self destructive behaviours. Nice work. Enjoyed it. Hardrock

This one is really extremely good. I too have experienced the power this liquid has in some very close to me. And a horrible thing it is!
Take care!
