Painful memmorys

by ronnie   Dec 17, 2010


She has been drinking
all night
she wants to
close her eyes
and see
nothing

images from her
past
are screaming inside
her heart
she will block it out
the best she can

but the drugs won't
kill the
flashbacks
and the booze
won't erase
the
pain

    'Painful Memories'
    ^Your title should read like this.

    A short poem, but I definitely see the message here. A lot us when we have problems do reside to bad things, whether it be drugs or alcohol. They are not the best decisions but a lot of people tend to do so to make them feel better for the meantime. There could have been more said to this subject in your poem but for what it is, it holds a true meaning.
