One More
They say it just takes time,
that it will be okay,
just do your best,
forget the past,
leave her behind,
and everything will be fine.
Just move on,
and you will be okay.
I sit here in silence,
hearing it all, deaf to it all.
I pour another shot or two of Jack,
tell myself it’s only one more,
tell you that you’re right,
that it will all be fine.
But I am not okay.
I just want to fall,
to fall away from it all,
to give up on it all.
