A Toast To a Girlfriend's Ghost

Crisp Cherished Mix A sip or two Silky smooth Today's taste What a waste Here's a toast To a girlfriends' ghost Alone, alone again Never was, never been Rum n' Cokes Coat this throat Chest burning fire This desire? A longing? "Wrong!" The Voice inside "Don't miss what's gone" Lies! Time will tell Let's drink for a spell Relax, just relax "She's never coming back"

Very sad and expressed in a unique way. Somehow I feel this poem can be expanded and be so much more. I hope you consider that, if you do please let me know I would love to read more and have you peel back more layers. Either way I like your poem.

Great title and enjoyed the winding down to acceptance of something that is final. suZ
