Down

I'm down to the earth
I can't even breathe up to my chest
I'm brimmed by alcoholic chest
My life is filled with miserable strength.
No one gat my back
No one to hold my arms
My thought of empty sack
No one to fill it with germs.
She left me all alone
For a man I barely know
She's always picking up the phone
But gives me another tone
I'm down to the earth
Like I'm a fool for the best
I love her to the end 
But I'm a waste to her thirst.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
