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.
