Beer
7 July, 2003
Author: Melissa
Almost everywhere i go it's all bout beer
It's here and it's there.
I dont know where to turn
I sit there thinking...
I want that beer...
I want to be drunk-
And no i'm not just a punk,
But i think i sunk...
Once again I got that beer...
I just wanna shed sum tears.
Do ya see?
When you were here
That's all i seen from you,
And now it's reflecting on me...
I think it's okay, because...
That's what you taught me...
you taught me to drink...
But you need to think.
You need to think-
"Does my daughter drink"
But ya know sumtin dad?
Yea i drink-only when i think of you,
Here lately...
It's been almost everyday.
When i drink,
Everything leaves my mind.
But this is just a bunch of bs.
So yo you caused me to drink
Now you need to think
"Does my daughter drink?"

| Ashley (68.72.95.239) -- Saturday, August 2 2003, 05:31 am My first question is how old are you? Is it legal for you to drink. I am talking to you from a parental point of view. (snip) You need to take responsibility for your drinking actions. Drinking will destory your wings, thus, you may never soar. So please, think, don't drink. God bless your soul. |
| Seizure (68.155.193.145) -- Saturday, August 2 2003, 10:44 am (snip) I thought it was a good poem Melissa. Keep it coming. |
| Melissa (172.167.120.243) -- Sunday, August 3 2003, 01:08 am i am 17. no its not legal for me to drink. my drinkin is starting to kinda improve tho. |
| KitKatrina (68.116.64.38) -- Monday, August 11 2003, 06:47 am 17 years old? I'm sorry for what has happened to you, but you can't blame others for your decisions. Yes your father may have drinkin, but you don't have to be like him. Don't drink and then see what he'll say about that. Make him proud even if he doesn't deserve it... |
| Melissa (129.1.33.18) -- Thursday, August 14 2003, 12:17 am hey...i aint blamin others...yea its my fathers fault for drinkin around me most of my life. I've started drinking when i was 10 years old, but thats what i was taught to do. I'm actually not drinking, i been sober/havent had no drinks in almost a month. I have to stay sober and no alcohol in my system cos my mom suspects that i been drinkin only cos she found an empty bottle of vodka in my room. yea it was a lil bottle but it was enough to knock me on my ass which it did. But yea i'm gonna stop drinkin at least until i turn 18 then my mom cant put me away from drinking like she can do now... |
| SarahTaurus (64.57.107.67) -- Wednesday, August 20 2003, 07:15 am First I dont think it is right to say that you drink because of your father. I know it was probably painful growing up around a parent that drinks all the time or what not, but you decide your actions so you can't blame it all on your father. I agree with "KitKatrina" and you can decide weather you want to be like your father and be addicted to alcohol, or you can stand up for yourself and dont let your father's actions become yours and do something about it. |
| KitKatrina (68.116.64.38) -- Friday, August 22 2003, 06:38 am Yes I agree with Sarah! No matter how much resentment you have towards your father you can't blame him for your own actions. They are your decisions and YOU CAN decide to go down the right path! So basically there is no excuse for the decision you made, only that it was your decision! I'm not being rude, but drinking, especially at your age, is wrong. Just take our advice into consideration. Thanks! Hi sarah! |
| Melissa (129.1.33.29) -- Thursday, September 4 2003, 10:59 pm The drinkin is what my father taught me 2 do. And yea it my decision 2 drink, but like i said my father taught me to drink and that what i learned. Besides i dont drink as much as i do now. |
| Dirk3474 (64.12.96.15) -- Thursday, October 2 2003, 04:05 am I dont drink, but honestly its none of your buisness who drinks or not. There are things you do in your life that you do but others might think is wrong. So therefore i think your all a bunch of hypocrites. To whoever wrote this poem, i dont agree with drinking but whatever you think is right, and yes it was still a good poem. |
| Melissa (129.1.33.52) -- Friday, October 3 2003, 12:56 am Hey i wrote this time.... I aint drinkin as much now. I stopped my drinking, and if it wasnt for my bf - Jonathan i dont think i could have stopped drinking like i did. Although i still do drink but not to the point where i am so drunk i dont know whats going on. I jus have a drink or two and thats about it with the drinking, it is nothing like it was when i met jonathan. and thanks for liking my poem. and i aint no hypocrite :D |
| ann (68.67.223.86) -- Saturday, January 3 2004, 10:32 pm my dads the same way. i drink to because of him. i know i have a choice but sometimes i feel if ii dont take a drink he will be dissapointed in me and other times i do it because im really depressed and start to wonder about things |
| Melissa (129.1.33.50) -- Wednesday, January 14 2004, 12:17 am You dont have to do anything you dont want to do. If you dont want to take the drink of alcohol then just tell ur dad be like "no dad it's not what i want" i started drinking because i was depressed and i liked the effects it gave me, because everything left my mind and didnt come back until the next day, then that's when i got drunk again. but then i met Jonathan (my bf, been together for four months now) and he changed that, he talked to me about what was on my mind, he's really the one that got me to stop drinking like i was. i will still have a few drinks, but not much, cos i get sick feeling after a few wine coolers, but then when i drink it's liquor even sometimes that makes me sick feeling. but just remember drinking will not solve ur depression, and if u dont want that drink then just tell ur dad u dont want to drink that it's not you. i aint trying to be ur boss or nothing just telling u u dont have to do nothin you dont want to do. have a nice day. |
