The Wednesday Poem #51 - Forget You

Last night I drank to forget you,
Sadly I woke up,
Tonight I'll try and forget you again,
Tomorrow it will be the same.

Me in 1979


This morning I was searching through some old paperwork. I found this in my box of lyrics. I wrote it in 1979. I was 17 at the time. When I read some of my old lyrics and poetry I am always shocked by what a miserable sod I was at the time. I used to take rejection by attractive females very badly. Although I desperately miss the heady days of punk rock, I don't miss the insecurity of being a teenager.
