Friends With The Bottle

Do you know why I drink?
I drink because the bottle is my only friend
It understands and comforts me
It gives me hope and invites me to a world of my own
Apart from the bottle,every other person thinks
I am useless,worthless and unimportant
Nobody recognizes me at gatherings
They think I talk nothing sensible
Just because I don't see the impossible
I speak thrash, listen to my words of wisdom
Whatever that comes out of my mouth is nonsense
But it makes complete sense
Don't undermine because I don't think the way you do
I don't see things the way you do
Doesn't mean I am blind
You are blind to the fact
And to the truth, you are deaf and dumb
But I suffer less from such casualties
I am not visually impaired neither am I insane
I am the true definition of freedom
I do what I want when I want
I say what I want how I want
Never think I have no secrets, I have secrets but they are open
I see what you cannot see using binoculars
My eyes are microscopic
I see beyond the invisible
Thanks to my trusted friend
The only friend I have in this world
The bottles, not empty bottles
Empty bottles are useless,unless they are filled with the magical potion
The bottle is my friend

Poet's note: People who are drunk normally behave a little different from our normal expectations of human behavior, you can call it strange, funny or wierd but Its rather fascinating to be in a different state of self under the influence of just a drop of a potion in your system and after it had evaporated from your system you become yourself miraculously and sometimes forgetting most of the things you did in your drunk state. Most people drink for do many reasons so I just crafted all in one master piece of art just for readers to get reasons why people drink and also experience how their works tastes after drinking
