Alcohol

Hurt

Battered

Tattered

When brought down

On knees

I ingurgitate a portion

Called YOU

Your alcohol mingles in my veins,

Blurring all shades of recent miseries

The intoxication sodomizes

All inflections gifted

In return of emotional conflicts

An anesthesia numbing

All pains prior to

Enunciation of indifference

Slowly

Steadily

I slip into trance of solitude

A preferred refuge

To assimilate strength

Refuelling craters of murky wounds

To heal

Conciliate for

The inflicter and beholder

Bring in the war of peace

Rise again at ‘dusk’

To soar above

Unexpected heights
