PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I keep downing drinks faster and faster.


I’ll be the game master
,

Own this game of disaster
.

Getting drunker and drunker
,

Lights get dimmer
.

My mind falls deeper into the abyss
.

My heart just a waterfall,

Pouring over the edge 
my life a near miss.


I tried to build it up to be great
,

I made a mistake…I looked at my problems with hate.


I need to let go and just move on,


No…I can’t I feel too much pain
.

Drink after drink don’t know where I am
.

Only know where I’ve been.


I call out for help,

I don’t know my name
.

I’ve washed away all my hope.


Drowned the pain and now I’m ashamed.

Had so much ahead of me but it’s time I let go
.

Ill stop thinking
, I’ll get lost in free fall
.

Nothing will stop me…
I just keep falling backwards
.

No one to catch me.

Now I’m over the edge
,

Falling through the sky. 

All I see are the city lights
.

The darkness filled with all those lies.


Then everything’s black and there’s nothing.


I wake up in an alley,


Only to remember Im just wasting away.
