4 a.m

It's four in the morning
beer, rum everything
in sight. City lights
shine in the distance.
Friends with happy faces
talk of years gone by
and memories of fool's past.

It's four in the morning
I should have been drunk,
sleep still won't take me.
Amidst all the laughter,
the friendly hugs
and warm smiles,
tears threaten to fall
as the heart silently screams.

It's four in the morning
my mind's drifting.
Smiling and hiding the tears,
phone on one hand.
Debating on what to do,
questioning reason.
Asking only one thing,
Why does letting go
hurt so much?

    The sadness is overwhelming. Your portrayal of this story is fantasic. It makes me feel so alone, but I think its great!
    Well done!
