One More DrinkA Poem by emmaJust one swig, just one sip, One more feel of glass on lip. Slosh it down, drink it up, Drain all the beer in that cup. Dear friend, why don’t
you just stop? Release the drink, let
it drop. Why must you torture
yourself so? Can’t you just let her
go? Her hair, her eyes, her laugh, her smile, All parts of her he hasn’t seen in a while. Lives change, but memories don’t, You can try to forget, but you won’t. She’s moved on, she’s
long gone, She’s no longer
someone to dwell on. She’s happy without
you, friend, For you two, this is
the end. Loved her then, loves her still, She’s left a void he can’t fill. So he’ll take another drink, another sip, It’s just the pain he wants to skip. You’ll try and keep
her out, Try and live without. Drown your misery with
a drink, Block out the time to
think. But it won’t stop, it
won’t end, You can’t even stop
and pretend. This has gotten too
big, too grand, She’s become too big a
demand. © 2012 emmaAuthor's Note
