Echoes Of A Mind Mar 2016
I'm confused
And my head is a mess
I got a hangover
And a giant headache...

But at the same time
I can't stop smiling
I'm so happy that I could die
'Cause he kissed me last night...

He was probably just drunk
And it probably didn't mean
Anything to him
But I'm still rolling around in my bed
Thinking 'bout what happened
While giggling
Like a teenage girl in love...
An old poem which I haven't made public before now....now this memory only makes me sad... He really became a bittersweet memory...
Jerielle Lasac Mar 2016
I still feel all the vigors
And my mind is still sore
But my heart is too frail
To feel anything

I still hear voices at night
Or maybe it is just the sound
Of your voice
Sweetly calling my name

I still feel those chills
Or maybe it is just the longingness
Between the spaces
Of my fingers

I still look at my walls
As if my sight can strike against it
So steady and deep
With the sharp thoughts I have

I cannot tell  what it is
But if there is something
That makes it hard for one to breathe
That is exactly it

We all get it
Hangovers
And the worst ones you get
Comes *when you love

Drinking cider
Late into the night
Then homemade *****
By candle light
Seemed such a
Wonderful idea

Until today

Alas I fear
My pile of paper
Will not shrink
The ***** dishes
Are still in the sink
The washing machine
Is far too loud
My head is firmly
In the clouds
The morning has
Just run away
I really wish
That I could stay
Curled up in bed
With nought but dreams
Navel gazing
In the sunbeams

Such Bliss......

But alas
I know I should
Move my ***
And get on
With things mundane
And really try
To engage my brain

Maybe

Just one more cup
Of coffee - black
Will wake me up
And some tunes
To dance around
Just in my pants
That pumping sound.....

No more of this
Up up she cries
I shall conquer
No compromise
In just a tick
Just one more minute
I'll will get up
And get on with it.....

And yet still
I'm here upon my bed
Making excuses
Just resting my head
And writing rhymes

But that won't do
Right
She's up!
Phew....

I tremble at the thought
that you might get drunk
with too much of me,
and that my sweet-bitterness
that you once so craved
just start running stale;
that you'd wake up
with a hangover to
some other different ale.

Last night the alcohol filled my system
and I laughed so hard
pearls came rushing down my cheeks
One, two, three - more than many
Last night I cried and filled an ocean
while I got drained
of the remnants of a one true love
together with the one real agony
And last night I tried to fill me up again
with thoughts of forgiving
and a decision of forgetting
Well last night at least, I really tried
Today I woke up
with a brand new hangover
and without the same old heartburn
Yes finally
Today, the sun greeted me
and I smiled back, "Good morning."

Now off my heart goes.

Letting go and finally saying goodbye was never an easy thing for the heart that had been so true, so passionate , and so hurt. It's never easy, but not impossible.
i'm continuing the family tradition
line of alcoholics
painful recognition of sober nights
i loved him more when i was drunk
i was too intoxicated
to notice him slipping through my fingertips
or let alone me loosing myself instead
those hungover mornings ******* me over more than he did
trying to remember what happened the night before
like every time he broke my heart
clueless and questioning myself
breath full of scents of ***** and orange juice
could it be worse?
Nick Strong Nov 2015
Dulled senses, aching
Haunted by last night’s fumes
Dark eyes darker, despite
Shades reflecting daylight
Red eyes in the morning
Drunkards warning to a
Dawn tinged with regret
Been there once too often
Leah Anne Aug 2015
Not the bitter kind, no.
Far from it actually.
Maybe it is the eye of the storm
Or the silence after the closing credits rolled up,
I will never really know.
In this vortex of mixed signals and miscalculated worst-case scenarios,
I know I am supposed to find a way out of your world
And force myself to walk on desserts
Or swim through rivers just to be safe from your shadow.
But strange as it may seem,
I have just managed to run away a little and now I stop.
The ignition on my feet is not responding, the chords were cut from my brain.
It did not consume me enough.
I could not taste the blood from my punctured lips.
