The Pain Inside

Last night I did it again Swallowed my pride, took it all in I called hoping we can still make it through But her voice on the answering machine, broke me in two How many times have you pushed me away? How about the times I begged you to stay? And when you repeatedly refused to say yes? Now Im feeling less and less Yes, the alcohol numbs my brain But why can't it too remove the pain? Tears trickling down my face As my mind turns to haze As I awake greeted by the dawn To the wet pillows, my eyes were drawn And the beer cans scattered in my room Why can't my suffering end soon? P.s. Just sharing to you guys another product of my wild imagination.

@JeeyanDee I choose to either draw or write.I am not a great artist but drawing feels soothing to me.

At first I thought it was you because of the first sentence

Oh hahaha. I just like writing in first person because I think feelings are easier expressed and more relatable to the readers.

Thank you! It being relatable was actually my aim. Good thing I was able to fulfill that.
