A Ghost Cries

Alcohol, Sadness, Loss

 

In a few moments,

the driver of the car

was sound asleep,

a ghost cries,

through silence you could hear the weep,

driver dies,

as the car falls into a deep stream,

he promised he’d be home soon,

but he was lost in a dream,

she saw his ghost,

her eyes searching,

seeking understanding the most,

he drank, he sank,

he promised to be home,

she received a phone call instead,

telling her that her husband was dead.
