Relapses and Etchings
All the heartbreak
The suffering that comes with it
All the drinking to forget
A drought broken
Tears of dark red
Continually flowing down the arm
The alcohol to numb the pain
A relapse is born again
The tears of a thousand heartbreaks
The thousandth one being the last straw
A major relapse the solution
Etchings the end result
The tears come to an end
All dried up after hours of being released
The heartache gone for a night
The etchings 'Sorry For Living' a reminder for life
The suffering that comes with it
All the drinking to forget
A drought broken
Tears of dark red
Continually flowing down the arm
The alcohol to numb the pain
A relapse is born again
The tears of a thousand heartbreaks
The thousandth one being the last straw
A major relapse the solution
Etchings the end result
The tears come to an end
All dried up after hours of being released
The heartache gone for a night
The etchings 'Sorry For Living' a reminder for life

This is a good poem. Deeply felt.
A major relapse the solution - Nice and I know what you mean..
