My Friend

It creeps in softly, and
It slips in slow, and
It slides with malice
To the back of your throat

It comes as a friend, and
It comes with a smile, and
It listens to you speak
For a little while

I'm sick on booze
You're sick with glee
You tell me I'm
A precious thing

Now you're gone
My song is done, and
I can never
Seem to come

My friend,
What have you done?
