Title: A Drunken Stupor

Character POV: Richard

Genre: Angst

I stumble around,

In a drunken stupor,

More than half the day.

What's that old saying?

Ah yes,

In Vine Veritas,

In Wine There Is Truth.

There's never been a truer sentence for me.

I started drinking,

Very heavily,

When Eva left.

She took everything,

My heart,

My house,

My love,

But she didn't take Rachel.

I'm thankful for that.

People say people drink,

Because they have something,

That they want to forget.

Well that's true for me as well.

I'm no different then anybody else.

I drink to forget,

The pain I felt,

When my angel left me,

She flew out of my life,

That's why I'm,

A drunken stupor.
