Daybreak confession to the Sea

In a life we must add up what we have done. Re-set our journey and begin again.

  Daybreak confession to the Sea


I have reached the bottom of the bottle.
Now distraught and delirious dreams led me to wishing.


I was swimming in your warm sweet kisses.
Desiring steamy long nights of passion  in your embrace.


I have joined the bonafide brethren of men who cradle love in their hands.
And misused the sweet woman.


Now I sit in a abyss of s**t sipping bourbon.
Walking on a tightrope.

I wish for those nights when you came to me in your sexy red negligee.
Your brown eyes taking the weight of the world away.


I try to forget your beautiful face.


I pick-up another shot of whiskey.
Raise the glass up and whisper to a divine and beautiful woman.
Who flee my worthless life.


Daybreak will be merciful.


I sit alone by the sea.
I will calculate how kind and noble you were.


I pray to the God of the Sea.

Sent a Angel to me with beautiful brown eyes.
To bring joy and laughter back into a sad life. 


I'm sorry.

A old poem. Wisdom can take a lifetime to learn. If we are lucky. We learn before it is too late.

Sorry I have been so busy reading so many writes, I was unable to take out time for reading yours before now. ^^ And wow did I start with an amazing one. I am a teetotaler so for me I wouldn't know how the Bourbon felt. But pretty sure it was just a temporary relief. Heartache and heartbreak is harsh, and you know the sorrows you end up drowning in is worsened when you have lost your way and not willing to get over it.
Umm not sure if this was intentional but in the last couplet you have written a Angel, shouldn't it be an Angel?
Thank you for sharing ^^ Some good advice thrown here for others to learn and follow ^^

A most profound write Coyote. Some mistakes are learned the hard way, and many get hurt along the way. Wisdom does come too late for many relationships.

[Tina Kline]

We can learn how not to abuse those we love if we learn from our mistakes. There's always hope as long as we are alive and willing to learn.

Wow. The story of an alcoholic is deep. And you're right. Wisdom takes a lifetime to learn, and we are always too late to realize it.

"I pick-up another shot of whiskey.
Raise the glass up and whisper to a divine and beautiful woman.
Who flee my worthless life."

What emotion this piece entails. I really feel the sadness and regret in your word choice. Beautiful reasoning behind the words and truly
