Puddles reflecting light into the night sky
Cool chill of twilight in the air
Half stumbling in from one long night
It's at these times that things cross your mind
Not normal things but the important ones
Like was she as good looking as she seamed?
Am I as drunk as I feel?
Did I really make it home in one piece?
Will I remember tomorrow?

Sun glare through glass in wall
Head pounding from one long night
Your way beyond the promise
And head straight for the pills
You wonder how many more of those you have left
Then you see a brand new bottle
And hope you're done before they are
How many more long nights?

Excellent writing.....I could feel the hang over. Why do people do this to themselves? One hang over was all it took to cure me!
Very good, Gurion!

This is a good poem...though I've never had a hangover 'cause I don't drink....
