... I wrote it last year.... Enjoy learning about the harmful effects of alcohol XD‘A Simple Beverage’
Oh woe be to the brain cells,
Lost within a single beverage,
Pain rises among others,
Caused indefinitely by you,
Injury and death,
Another sorrowful effect,
Of a simple beverage.
Uncontrolled mitosis,
Cancer some might say,
Systems fail,
As your body dies,
False security arises,
False warmth as well,
Something done,
Against the better judgment,
Crimes of violence,
Suffering to all those about you,
All because,
Of a simple beverage.
Friendships lost,
Pains gained,
Disconnected,
But only for a little while,
Important tasks,
Set forth and forgotten,
Imprisoned,
Fined,
All because of a simple beverage.
Lives are altered,
In a single instant,
Woe be to thee,
Who misuses,
And abuses,
This simple beverage,
Fearfully known as,
Alcohol.
