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.

Author's Note

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 ^^

Why so often do we destroy the thing we love? Love your poems.

[Sweet_pale_cacophony]

There is such a vulnerable gentle tone to your poems..that one really wants to reach out...and all your poems seem to get better towards the end...

I know the water well
I know Mr. Daniel's as well
I know myself too well

I see them all in your words...well

Knowledge is important in life and in a way it can soften the blows that life throws at us

[Reesie Dobbins]

Liquid Pain. I love the line, "I have reached the bottom of the bottle." that is a powerful line. The bottom of the whiskey bottle or how I also see it as the bottom a bottle washed up from sea with wishes tucked inside. Sad but it shows how people cope with life in different ways. I enjoyed this poem.

Loneliness can drive us to find false comforts to pass the time... very creative... I like the format and flow along with the powerful wording.
