Drunken thoughts (Part 1)

Drunken thoughts (Part 1)

A Poem by Destiny Izaguirre Cortez

I have flaws 
I'm not perfect 
I make mistakes just like everyone else dose
But I have the tendency of hiding away and drinking my problems away 

It's not like I drink everyday; no
Only the weekends

I have a bad habit 
Cocooning myself away from the world
Endless nights
Glasses of red wine
Numb those feelings 
Escape the pain

Pretend 
Fake that smile
Keeping on fooling everyone like you do 

Fighting constantly with that person behind the mirror 
"Stop pretending everything's alright" She says

The woman standing in front of her; tears streaming down her bright rose cheeks
"I can't" She cries 

It's a battle. A never ending war.
