Poem -

empty chair,s

hand to mouth at  the kitchen table 
empty chair,s for company 
not a sole to share a word 

no one here but me 

time slowly passes like that clock on the wall
reminding me i am on my own 
there was a time when all was mine 
now left with an empty home

my mind asks the question 
was it really worth all this
was it better to drink from a bottle
than to give your loving wife a kiss

such a fool am i
and the pain i did bring
i drank those bottles of whiskey 
now i have lost everything 

empty chairs in front of me 
are now painted in dust 
my  iron heart  beating in my chest
has crumbled away into rust

Iron doesn't crumble so easily. It is made to last
