Julia Brown Badr Poet Free verse

I Drink

I drink to forget,
but your memory still scratches my brain.

I drink to go numb,
but your presence is a never ending fire,

I drink to sleep,
but your voice penetrates my slumber

I drink to remember,
but you still remain faceless.

I  will not find peace until your memory is obliterated
Or until my mind ceases to care.
