Drunken Love

by Meme   May 13, 2012


Tonight, love seemed drunk
a bit, or was it me who lost
my soberness ... yet again!

I remember a day when, in
your name; I raised my glass
"for love"; or at least the idea
of it.

It's so easy to fall in the name
of love, but the catch is that
you spend a lifetime keeping
it awake.

Well here I am, drinking this
last shot .. of love. So until
we meet again, until I wake
you up ..

.. I guess its a farewell.

    I was NOT the inspiration, Meme. Your lovely heart is!

    'I remember a day when, in
    your name; I raised my glass

    of it.'

    That was such a heartfelt part. My heart skipped a beat or maybe two! I loved how you said simply that you sacrificed, loved the use of 'in your name'. Really simple and great word choice!

    Psssst, its = it's ;)
