Dreaming Drunk

Dreaming drunk 
Teeth grind under the weight of 
Time;
An anomalous and vile passage 
I writhe in my own grime 
Feverish and mad, I cry to my demons
Hope they remember me 
As a spirit, untouched, worth life
I have never done it well
Every day passes, hurts like hell
And I miss the spot in the sky from which I fell
And to no avail, I scream out to that sky, but
Whoever He was has left.
