Whiskey Lullaby

Part 1


She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette

She broke his heart, he spent his whole life tryin' to forget

We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time

But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind,

Until the night...



Flashback



"That's it! We are OVER!" Mary shouted to Carlos.

"Why?" Carlos asked dumbfounded.

"Hmmm I wonder! Your constantly coming home drunk and putting all of our lives in danger! Hmm is that a good enough reason? I think so! I'm trying to save our son!" She screeched picking up little Charlie and leaving.

End of Flashback



Carlos had spent his whole life trying to forget. She had told him it was over and left. He hadn't seen her or his son since. Now all he cared about was dying. Life in general to him was, well, stupid. Now he would end his life. End it and never have to think about her or his son. He would show her. He never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind until the night...

He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger

And finally drank away her memory

Life is short but this time it was bigger

Than the strength he had to get up off his knees

We found him with his face down in the pillow

With a note that said I'll love her 'til I die

And when we buried him beneath the willow

The angels sang a whiskey lullaby...

-Ding-Dong. Ding-Dong. Went the doorbell at Mary's apartment. Mary having just put 3-year-old Charlie, and his two cousin's, 2-year-old, Lucas, and 1- month-old, Kendra to bed, jogged as quite as could be to the door. It was detective Micheals.

"Mary he's dead." The detective sighed heavily.

"Who?" Mary asked dumfounded.

"Carlos," the detective replied.

"What?" Mary asked.

"We found him with his face down in the pillow, with a note that said he'd love you 'til he died. I'm sorry." The detective said then apologized.

"Me too." Mary whispered closing the door. She sank to the floor. And cried all night.


Please Review! And look for chapter 2 soon.
