On the Rocks

by HarryT

"I'll have Scotch rocks, bartender"
“I needed that...another please”

God, stop the haunting,
the wanting, the needing

"Bartender another Scotch rocks"

No calm any longer
no balm can soothe
I'm adrift without her

"One more, bartender"

Oh no, her face, her face

Damn her face

Another, make it a double

Thanks, bartender she's
finally gone.
