Alcohol use as a teenager

[chy scott]

As a child I had a poem published but I burnt out really fast. I’m 16 now and wanting to give poetry a second thought. Here is my poem made about 6 months ago, please share your opinions you can only help me get better.

Empty Bottles - Chy Scott


I’m fifteen,
and throwing back fireball,
it’s 6am,
but everything i’ve ever known is gone,
trying to silence the voices .
trying to feel less alone .
i really wish i was there with you,
there with you at home.

I’m sixteen now,
still tired but sober,
creating my peace,
while i’m getting older .
I’ve silenced the voices,
and never truly been alone.
Now i don’t think about you
or our broken home.
