(freestyle poem) Tears of whiskey

54 4 1
                                    

Back to the streets where you belong

all of the tears locked in a box

and you know

that your at the end of your rope

Stumbling along whiskey on your breath

eyes red and puffy from the meth

and you know

life ain't worth living when there's nothing to live for

Passing along flaming barrels of trash

a boy's glassy eyes stare into past

you hand him your cloke on shivering night

and your last photograph takes its final flight

the only memory goes from fire to ash

and you know

that it's finally time to let go

You've reached the end of published parts.
