There’s a dopamine party in my brain!
Entertaining thoughts of moderation …
Don’t worry it won’t get outta control I promise!???

But, it’s like this:

When the night has just begun
To drink 2 glasses and then be done
As a solution it’s not really the one

The dopamine lights up my brain
Like there’s a party going on

That seems great
I’ll have another one
And carry on
But…..

Wait…

A sudden crash and a power cut? What?
It soon leaves me feeling sad and wrong
With an aching head
Can’t get out of bed

If again and again you seek
To recreate the “magic”
You found in your drink
It could be a task that’s fruitless
And could eventually prove tragic

The magic you see
Is in you and me
It’s in your spirit
And how you choose to think
Not what you drink

The Spirit is not in the Bottle it’s in You …
