Composing Drunk
#WritcoPoemPrompt101
in moments of bleak, smirk,
you wonder how it will work?
and of misery, roar,
just like before
she's composing drunk
to ease the pain
she's too high to debunk
lies made when sane
this murder was abrupt
with nothing to gain
her days transform corrupt
her once brilliant brain
chance of forgiveness snuffed
the grave rots in the rain
for a crime she is cuffed
though she is without blame
caught and bluffed
hearts broke that day
she thought she was in love
til her heart flew away
heart pieces shoved
left scattered to decay
what once was beloved
has gone terribly astray
the heart died unloved
in the ground it goes today
she's eulogizing drunk
in a smokey cafe
he hit the ground with a thud
when he took away his pain
a mighty risk it is to love
we poets often die in vain
