Drunk

In a blistering drunken stupor
I was down on my knees,
crawling back to you
legs cut up and bruised.

You locked the door on me -
all I wanted was a piece of your light
to hold you for the rest of the night.

Trying to get back in
I felt abandoned again.
Like that feeling resonates
still from an unknown
childhood memory.
