Whiskey Again

You’ve gone now,

But these remnant thoughts of you add burden.

And it gets heavier every day.

You have a piece of me now,

One I never meant to leave.

___

These tears are new, what did you do?

It’s me who is the one who gets to run away. 

___

Distraction and whiskey, and whiskey again.

Whiskey only numbs the pain for so long.

But the night always ends, as we hope for the day.
