    Glass in Hand
    she said she has dreams
    that she cant have with me
    so i silent my screams
    while she walks out on me
    laughter wont mix with misery
    so i drink a bottle
    and wish for more whiskey
    waking up
    is not a friendly hand
    i cant reach for the cup
    with my glass in hand
    wonder why i'm trying
    to survive this
    till it happens again
    i can only wish
    my thoughts slur
    my tongue will list
    to port and bow
    and back again
    drunken broken man
    with a spine like a leaf
    refusing to deal
    or share in his grief
    till one summers day
    in a month i cant remember
    my heart gave out
    and i finally surrendered
    enjoyed a few smiles
    and gained an ally
    we all start this journey
    with ourselves by our side

    this feels like, the path you have taken is a long one, which you feel you have to do alone. It also tells me you have come to a realization and picked yourself up and began a new...and it wasnt easy
