It was like any other day really
school, meals, homework, computer games
before the moment you came in
and it wasn't like you even ruined my life
I just feel for the others in this family
you know like
mum, my brother
Yourself.
They're the people you're fucking up
not me I'm too strong for this shit
seen to much of this shit
thanks to you exhibiting it all before
but don't worry this poem isn't me having a go
at you or trying to blame you for anything
it's just me writing about the past
you just waltzed in
yeah you looked like you were feeling like shit
your face was screwed beyond any recognition
thanks to the drink you had the night before
but to this day we still don't know what happened to you
to hurt you that bad
you should have stopped a long time ago dad
and I'm thankful that you have now
thought it's not like your any happier these days

This was wonderful, you told it like you lived it, but still showed love to the loser in your life, your Dad.
Alcohol is also a loser, and creates human ones for family members, as well as themselves.
Great job on this.
Bell,
