There are some things better kept unsaid.
The extra drink you snuck to help you fall asleep
All of the happiness in the world
Wouldn't help you forget
But that one drink,
Perhaps with just a little more liquid anesthetic
Than you would see in a bar
That drink will numb you
Just long enough to allow your eyes to close
Hopefully without the tears
This time.
