Sitting here creating my own self-destruction
I drink this vile liquid of alcohol
As it caresses my lips
(as yours once did)
it’s bittersweet taste
drowns my pain.

Lying here alone in self pity
Darkness surrounds me
as it hugs my body closely
(as you once did)
its lifeless movement
leads me to tears.

Dreams that leave me abandoned
Dreams that will never be
invade my mind and soul
(as you once did)
left forever in solitude
a life that will never be.

A stroll through yesterdays can be filled with pain.  Tomorrows always look brighter  

 Let your heart guide you. It whispers, so listen closely.
