    This poem held so much emotion throughout the entire thing, It was beautifully sad and really grasped onto my heart. I enjoyed reading it. Some may class this as cliche but you added something to this, i'm not 100% sure what it is but I think it is the raw emotions which you placed into it which takes the cliche part away. The rhyme was simple yet effective as was your word choice. Suicidal poems kind of get to me in a way, i've always had the feeling where I could be suicidal yet I can't be because the thought of it makes me stomach churn. I guess i'm overly emotional at times myself. The story behind this caught my attention, I can relate to it deeply in my own way. Damn fathers.. But anyways. I enjoyed this:

    "There's alcohol in the air "

    Something about them words painted this depressive scent over the atmosphere.
    The flow of this was smoothe and I didn't have to stop once to read over anything. Overall this is quite the read. Well done. ~Mel
