The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Burn Out

Sometimes I Have a Smile
But Lately It's Been Rare
I'm Not Even Too Sure Why
Or Even If I Care

I Have Too Much to Think about
And Don't Know Where to Start
I'm Pulled in Different Directions
Concerning Affairs of the Heart

My Mind Begins to Wander
Back to Happier Times
But They Were Few and Far Between
Even They Seem Hard to Find

I Don't Know What to Do
Or Which Way to Turn
Sometimes I Feel the Thing to Do
Is Simply Crash and Burn

This is a really wonderful write! The best I have read in at least 10 minutes (and I have been reading poem after poem). Great job here. Great write!
