The Toast

I will always miss you and always love you......That will never and can never be changed!! Catch you in the next life.

When the time comes to sit and think,
I can't get you out of my mind as i pick up another drink
The passion we shared was one of fiery lust,
It made me not give a s**t about my other life, I just cared about us
The demons within me are trying to escape once more,
I drink another shot to keep them from opening the door
I can't stop thinking of you as you were the one,
We would laugh together and have so much fun
Now the time has come to set the bottle down,
I know that being numb already would be easier with another round
So i decide to lift my glass one more time as I have a toast to do;

May you take what you want out of this life and know that through it all I have always loved you.

Wow. This is just... wow. It either shows the life of a broken hearted alcoholic or it just shows how much a heart break can hurt... I'm leaning towards the next one.

Powerful write here.
Very well written

[StacyPerry]

Thank you to everyone who has read this and given your thoughts. This was a very easy write for me as the words flowed out, but it is difficult as well because I have a bad feeling that those will be my exact words when he passes which should be within the next 2 months.

Again, thank you all.

Yes I know the feeling of this poem. Took many shots for things lost in a life . Yoiu told a common story and the ending was very true. A excellent poem.
