Throwing Punches

Cloaked
in the madness that authors my soliloquy
I sway
in drunken anger
throwing punches at the emptiness
you left me in
yes
this is your fault

I'm mad
that you're gone
and it's ********
that you’re gone
because I yearn the burn of the liquor
that eases our arguments
you don't understand
I'm not
an alcoholic
I’m not the drunk
you make me out to be

I laugh
at the perception that I'm an addict
I can quit
if you stop wanting to fight
and it's YOU
that's throwing our life away
you're destroying our family
I worked so hard to make
LEAVE!
I don't care . . . I'll just keep throwing punches
at the emptiness

I have no words to express anything. Just know I feel the pain

Just so apt for people in my life...Beautiful words as always Mig...

very nice op ...
