I feel your hands Around my neck Like a choke collar -Kel Dayheart
The Storm in his Eyes
I put the shutters down In my mind And hope to weather The storm I see you brewing -Kel Dayheart
Wrung-out Women
Women all the same Want a ring But some unfortunate ones Find themselves wrung instead -Kel Dayheart

He cannot rest sober.

Out and then audacious

First Sip
I remember The first sip But it never stopped Continued on Destroying my mind Easy fix Losing never felt so good Nothing matters anymore Except for the drink More and more Never-ending guilt Just forgotten in the bliss But then I crash again Craving more and more I remember nothing else -Kel Dayheart
