    Drinking is a serious problem. its an
    addiction, slowly drowning in the liquor
    it's something they must have, otherwise
    they can't function anymore. Flushing down
    the problems, one way how they deal with
    it, not dealing at all. It is so sad
    how drinking can affect your life and it is
    reflecting on others. Until they realize they
    need help there not much somebody can
    do.
    very sad poem. Well penned

    I love what you have done with this. The fact that you have shown how many changes this person has had and what they have changed into is awesome. You've given us a description of what this person has changed into and a time frame. I love that.

    The words in the poem are drenched with sadness. I could really feel the words completely and my heart reached out for you and this person obviously going through something. I hope that it works out for both of you.

    Ah yes Hannah,

    This is a very relatable poem for me. My friend changed so very much just in the past year, but it's a long story, and I won't bore you.

    Not a word in this poem is untrue, qnd I appreciate it a lot. Don't stop writing! I like what I've read!

  • Nicely written.

    Verse 1:
    5years ago
    Love how you showed the kind of man you fell in love with.

    Verse 2:
    You show slight change but good change that would ultimately make you love him more.

    Verse 3:
    You see a different more negative change. Though maybe not yet a deal breaker, you see he is a different and changing man to the one you first fell in love with.

    Verse 4:
    You realise he's cheating on you. But perhaps because you have been together for years now, you think you may be able to survive this, if only the man you knew would return.

    Verse 5:
    He's been tryingto redeem himself but not enough. You can love someone, but trust is harder and once broken its so very hard to repair it. You can forgive, but its harder to forget. To forget the sins, to forget the man you fell in love with...

    Verse 6:
    Realising he wont change, he will only get worse from here. Realising loving him is pointless because you will only be second to the drink...

    Nicely penned. You have expressed the emotion intensely as well as allowing the reader to guess at a few things themselves - the art of a skilled writer!
    Loved how you wrote in annual increments down to the last day... Set the pace of the poem beautifully. 5/5

    So true, but then so many cannot see past the bottle.

    When they can, it is usually too late!
