Drink my mother drink,
Slip away to your happy times
Times long gone by

Drink my mother if only to forget
Forget the pain and your sorrow
For it will all be back tomorrow

Drink my mother let it go
Let go of the regret
And don’t bother with what you never did

Drink my mother drink
Be happy and remember the ones you left
Left behind like unwanted doles

Drink my mother drink
And don’t worry about me
I will be ok

Drink my mother drink
For I never knew you anyway
Never were you there to care

Drink my mother drink
Let it all be washed away
All the time you missed

Drink mother drink
I will fined my own way
Not that you ever noticed any way

Drink my mother drink
But I pray that you see one day
All you missed

Drink my mother drink
I pry that I may never be
Like you one day

*sniff*  I can understand the pain in this poem... although not with a mother... but, nevertheless... I can understand.  Well written.  Take care.

Very powerful. Dark and sad, and well said.

With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free..
