'm standing here with an empty glass and lighted cigarette,
It's time to close but I'm not ready yet,
I haven't forgotten him.
I down another shot,
I'm on the road to forget,
But I haven't yet with an empty glass and lighted cigarette,
I hit the floor and laugh it off but the pain is still there even with an empty glass and lighter cigarette,
I'm in my car too drunk to drive,
I make it home somehow,
I stumble up the steps and I cry.  
I scream "WHY GOD WHY CAN'T I FORGET HIM"
The pain and the hurt is still there,
After an empty glass and burnt out cigarette.

The way this was written leaves a lingering emptiness, like the memory of someone that just won't go away.  You have captured the feeling of a lover lost...
~~nice writing~~
