I try to pretend I don't care but
one kiss from her would betray me

I'm just a unfaded memory she think's 
she knows
but she'll find my lips taste deliciously
of cheap whiskey and even cheaper
thrills
i've changed to the point she wont know me
that was then this is now

I've found myself in a world of darkness
It's seems like it's been a million miles 
or a life time ago
they say absence making the heart grow fonder
It's idealistic and even hopeful but nothing more 
than a fantasy 
at least until the sun goes down
then I find myself at the bottom of a bottle looking
for the good times tying to avoid the bad
but even a puddle of my blood on a bar room floor
is better than a puddle of my tears
the dreams we start out with get sacrificed 
somewhere along the road

I try to pretend I don't care but
one kiss from her would betray me

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Heavy sigh / Why is it it's the sacrificial lamb we remember the longest ? is it the poet or the warrior in Me that loved her the most ? or is it this kind of hell that makes poet's out of warriors ? Thing's to think about the next time I pick up a bottle ? or is it Just Fucking Life ? .............. I'm sure between us all We could fill volumes 

maybe libraries on the subjects .....and still never know the complete truth to the answers    ...~ DD ~

Hell to Heaven

.
Most of us fall somewhere in between, falling into the extremes then floating to a place where continuance is possible. Without my hells - my poetry would be empty. Being honest with myself is the challenge and you do that very well and I learn a lot with each of your writes ~ Lady A
