Dear Alcohol: A Continuation Poem by Ebubechi Ireke

Dear Alcohol: A Continuation

Rating: 5.0

Sitting in the club,
Watching people drink,
Hoping their problems go,
Go away with the noise.
But with pounding headache,
They awake.
Their sad thoughts come rushing,
As a torrent of rain.
And maybe,
I think to myself,
They won't come back again.
But alas,
Here they are seated, drinking.
And I wonder why.
And one said,
'I got wasted cause
I didn't want to deal with myself tonight...'

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
This poem is inspired by and serves as a continuation of Dax's powerful song 'Dear Alcohol.' The original song's introspective and emotional narrative moved me deeply, prompting me to explore further the themes of struggle and reflection. I hope this tribute resonates with fans of Dax and those who appreciate heartfelt poetry.
