My Uncle's Addiction

You dont even know how much I love you,
Its more immense than anyone could ever know,
I want so badly to help you,
But its a job that you have to do on your own,

I know that its an addiction,
That is hard to overcome,
But it means a ton to me that you quit,
I worry about you all the time,

Do it for your son who means so much,
For your daughter, so when you two meet she will be proud,
Do it to show people alcohol cant ruin your life,
Prove to them you are willing to work hard,

Dont drink and drive again,
Its risking so many peoples lives,
Its the reason the person you love wont get married,
Think about what you are doing to others,

You get so violent when you drink,
You become a different person,
How is this good for your son?
You cant control the actions you make,

I know I dont mean that much to you,
But to me you are my favorite uncle,
I love you with all my heart,
Please just save yourself.

*My uncle is an alcoholic and I worry about him so much. It makes me cry when I think of his life. He has two children and he has only seen his daughter once (when she was born) because his ex-girlfriend wont let him see her. I really wish that he could overcome his addiction, but I can only imagine how hard it is. Whenever he gets put into a hospital for his problem he always leaves though and I really wish he would just let them help! I love and care about him so much and it really pains me that I cant help him-but he needs to quit for himself*

Sorry this poem isnt my best, but was really hard for me to write a poem about a topic that gets me so upset.
