If I try hard enough I can feel the whiskey move down my throat,
Maybe if I'm lucky it will put the fire out.
The cursed flame that burns within my heart for you,
It hurts that I can't let you go.
Seeping in through my skin I can feel you move,
That relentless untamed flame.
If I try hard enough I might be able to fall apart,
I highly doubt you'll leave my mind.
Each swallow brings the memories back,
Tears swell in my eyes.
You won't leave me anymore,
Not if I have my way.
for there will be no one to leave.
If I try hard enough I can lose my life,
Maybe if I can drown myself,
I will finally be free.
Author notes
One of my most emotional writes.... It's really hard to deal with this kind of thing....
Alcohol is the choice of most, as it has been mine.

I don't like this one. Not because it isn't a great piece of writing, because it is, I just don't like the tone. It's so....suicidal at the end=[
