  • NOBLE POETRY  

  • BESIDE ME

    Something had to fill in....
    The void that I have deep within,
    So I've replaced the spot you slept in,
    With a bottle of rum, Brandy or whiskey,
    Because nights are cold and lonely,
    And your not here to warm me,
    So for now I've replaced the warmth of you,
    With golden brown liquor,
    1 Pint @ a time,
    To mask all that I hide,
    This sinking depression eating me inside,
    I run on alcohol and chasers,
    A substitute for love and a pseudo sense of happiness,
    If only for a moment,
    I can hold it...
    Hold it just a bit longer,
    Before my sanity faulters,
    Something had to fill in,
    The hole that's deep inside,
    And maybe I hope in time...
    I can pick myself up
     ONE MORE TIME.
