His words seduced her
Spoken quietly, deeply
Through years of
Smoke, alcohol dull
She leaned forward
With all her 48 years
To hear this messiah of words
An old soul, a young boy
Scorned and scarred
Soured on what he
Thought he knew
She read right through
The valium haze
Words tumbling down
Between two lips that
Anticipated a coming
That never was
A chemical reaction
An extraction of two
A quick embrace
With awkward goodbyes
Made in haste
He walked away
On unsteady legs
Full of sin and gin
Fighting a battle within
She hoped he'd win

That was touching. :heart: I dated a very troubled man a few years back. He was an alcoholic and had lots of problems. It was so sad to let him go. I tried to "fix him" but couldn't. Thank you for sharing. flowerforyou

Fixing someone never works-no one has that power over someone else. Thanks for commenting.:smile:
