Innocent and inebriated. In the dead of night she staggered. Young at heart but intoxication excess had made her slightly haggard. Emotionally charged with deep rooted scars upon her heavy heart. Shadows clouding judgment her world had been torn apart. No one knew her plight, her fight, the tragedy she'd faced. Take the story one year back where the cause is easily traced. Her little boy of five years old Alfie was his name Knocked down by a drunk Killed stone cold What an awful shame! A downward spiral an empty house The result of a mothers loss Equating to another drunk Who couldn't give a toss!

A Mothers loss
