Description i can clearly remember that night
i was drowning myself with alcohol
i was sad that you're out of sight
because i lost you, i lost my all
i am not used to drinking
but it keeps my heart from bleeding
so i drank even more
i drank by the door
then someone offered me a cigarette
or was it i who offered myself?
i can't remember, i did forget
but i accepted it like a greedy elf
i lit it like i'm an expert
the beer's the main course and it's the dessert
i sipped the smoke through the filter
and that made me a smoker
then everything around me was spinning like i'm in a carousel
i tried to stand but from my chair i fell
my body turned as hot as hell
for i am drunk, oh yes i can tell
i acted so silly
for i got so dizzy
i vomited on the loo
for there's nothing i can do
again, i stood by the door
but this time, i drank no more
i just stood there and reminisced the past
and wonder why we didn't last
a tear fell from my eye
because to myself i just can't lie
that even if i am feeling high
the fact i just can't deny
that i lost you, i lost my all
and it can't be drowned by alcohol

This is probably the most potent of your poems I've read thus far. It has the most emotion and substance. The rhymes are pretty good, and the rhythm is better than others.

"the beer's the main course and it's the dessert": a very good line, it should be quoted some day!
A sad, sad story indeed but it paints a good picture in the mind. Very descriptive as well, helps add to the "story-telling" atmosphere of the poem.

this is a real lost piece. it seems to give a feeling of saddened memory of lose. It wakes up memories both good and bad.
Good piece.
