Dear Alcohol, enough is enough.

Imaging by: Andrii Iemelianenko

We were so close, you and I, it felt like it would last forever.
Through the good, bad, laughs and grief, you were the one I could always depend on.
You never let me down, until you did.
It took a while to catch on, but I see you for what you are.
All you did was lie, made me believe you were the only solution.
Rather than listening to myself, I turned to you for insight.
I became someone I didn’t recognize.
Someone I grew to despise.
You led me astray. I allowed you to.
I listened when you said you were all I needed, that vicious lie consumed me.
That lie that almost destroyed me, but now I know the truth.
You’re nothing but a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
You deceived me and made me think I was using you, yet it was you that was using me.
Until there was almost nothing left.
Like I said, it took me a while to catch on, but I see you now.
You’re nothing but a poison that was slowly tainting my body and mind.
I gave you too much of myself.
Enough is enough.
I’m recovering all I allowed you to have.
I refused to give you anymore.
This is your last call.
We were so close, you and I, but now this is goodbye.
