Wine & cigarettes!
I drink you
in
With every sip
Alas
you aren’t
Here
To see
how I bleed
you
in my
blood stream
-------------------------
how I bleed
you
in my
blood stream
-------------------------
You spiral me away
With every puff
All that remains
Of me
now
Is the stub
That you grind
Under your heel
--------------------------
Frozen sparkling tears
Drying on silken webs
Of lashes….
Scattered reflections
Of shattered loving
In flashes…
Murmured whispers
Trailing on lips
Now silenced.
Now bring on
the
wine and cigarettes
killing off
bits
of
myself

hugs

Incrredibly well said my dear - combined with the image above it is brilliant!
PS Vis-a-vis the post below, I could feel the pain with every word I read...sometimes the pain gets really unbearable doesn't it? I wish you well...always!
Ouch!!! Brilliant, nonetheless. I think of all the patients I see with health problems multiply after a life change. Discontent in any relationship can drive us to seek comfort in the most destructive things.
Mine is chocolate.
poignant and bitter....yet so beautifully expressed.
Oh Cushion
This is so unlike you...may you be in peace ...may the colours and beauty you bestow on us fill your life.
Hugs...
