Peer Pressure

I'm not a huge fan of this one, but I decided to post it for now, and maybe change it later. So if anyone reads this feel free to comment with suggestions.
Anyway this one is in honor of my 21st birthday, which is in...an hour. However, I do not drink. I never have drank, and I don't plan to for my 21st birthday. Most people are appalled by this, and tell me how much I'm missing out on. Yea...thats what i really need to do. Start drinking when i'm stressed to my limit. Good idea.

Ha so this is too all of you "peer pressurers" out there. Back off.
Thank you.



Peer Pressure

Only a sip
They said, with eyes glazed over
One sip and you’ll understand
It all.
It takes away the world
If only for a moments time,
The morning after
Is an after-thought.

The night is young,
So gulp this down
And find the courage
To creep out of that hardened shell,
The thing that keeps you quiet
And agonizingly shy.
Oh how quickly it will
Disintegrate with each cool sip.

Soon you’ll find
You have no regrets.
The world is your playground!
Act like a fool,
Collapse on the ground,
Regurgitate dinner
Partially digested
On the busy city sidewalk.

A sober life is nothing but
a life wasted.
Forget the worries.
Sure, you may act
A little out of character,
But all in fun, and fun for everyone.
Just one sip, and you’ll understand,
It all.
