Steemit Poetry Contest #4 - Last embrace

in #poetry • 7 years ago (edited)

This is my entry for @terrycraft's 'Steemit Poetry Contest', the theme is Emptiness. I haven't written any poems in a long time and it really was fun to do it again.

Okay, so here it goes:

Last Embrace

Looking at the stars, in silence he sat
He couldn't stop thinking,
He couldn't stop drinking,
From that glass filled with poisonous regret.

‘Why am I here?’ – constantly mumbling
‘What should I do?’
‘Where should I head to?’
He witnessed his world crumbling.

Salty tears fell on his face
As rain started pouring…
He was still mourning
The emptiness of her last embrace.
