Poor me a Drink

You were here
now gone
Wasted time?
my heart says no
I will leave you alone
and fake my way through this test
which led me to
confess
that I was obsessed
And request that the
bartender pour me
a drink
so I don't have to think.....
of the sorrow
He said,
"Look to the future,...
Atleast you can eat onions again"
love is free

    I liked the rhymes in this one AND love the last line! I know the poem has a sad feel but that line makes me smile. :) I've said something similar to a pal of mine, 'cept I said garlic instead of onions. Hope we see more from ya! :)

    I know it's unintentional, but the typo in the title of the thread adds to the feeling of the poem.

    I got it. It's a saying I've heard a time or two.
