my stomach aches
like it always does and
I can hear the train
off in the distance
as I lay in bed
unsleeping
into the night

i’m alone
and i want to drink.
i have no plans,
no companions.
i can not go to the bar
to get a beer
and make a friend.
tonight, like most nights,
i am alone
and tonight, i drink alone.

at times,
when i can not sleep at night,
the thought of you
suffering as i have
at your hands,
is all that keeps me sane.
one day soon
i can only hope
that as much as you
have crushed me
and ruined my will to live
at times
that someone
so kindly
returns the favor.
