I sit here
Slamming acid shots
And listening to celtic beats
And  think to myself
Would this day taste the same?
If it was seasoned with hope?
Instead of aged seagrams
And I wonder
Will they be enough?
Enough to turn bitterness
Into learning
Hate into forgiveness
And pain into strength
And I know in my heart
Yes
My three Christines
Can change anything
And most of all
They change
Me

An explosion of emotions placed down on electronic paper, reminding all of the human vunerabilty factor and the love of significant others.  Well done.

Jason, this is a really powerful write.
A real punch. I could tell it came from your
heart. That very admirable to me when someone
writes of hurt that's really been there for them.
I wish I could do more of it. But those
memories get me down so bad that I hate to even
think of them, much less write about them.
I would rather think of my Honey-Love, because
I get really depressed from the hurtful stuff.
Thank you so much for sharing your heart.

This is really deep.  I enjoyed the read and can only hope that through all your pain, you have been seasoned with a little bit of hope since then.

Keep writing.  We can only get better.
