The Other Way

Darling, oh darling It's 3 in the morning and i know how you feel Please, let go of your phone Flush it Or smash it Who cares if he ever calls? If it was important to him, he would be an idiot to make you wait Lay down, turn the lights off Sweetheart, It's killing me to sit here and hold your hair back as you vomit in attempt to empty the vodka from your body He shouldn't be making you feel this helpless You surely can't fix him And drinking away your problems isn't helping either When he finally comes running, walk... The other way Smile at him, and show him that he's worthless to you I promise you darling, that will break his heart harder and quicker than you ever broke yours Don't wreck yourself over a wreck like him

Another gut-wrencher. I hope it's giving the catharsis you and your loved needs. Nice write.
