My Poem:

The Next Morning

Waking the next morning,
my eyes fare filled with confusion,
A sensation of fear
trembles down my body.

Mom tells me
my brother is suffering.
Last night is a blur,
says the pounding in my head.

Then it hits me,
I'd promise to only have one.
Promise broken.
Drunk behind the wheel
I lost control...

The sensation of fear vanishes,
it is replaced by regret.

Thanks guys, Don't be to critical please!
It was my 3rd poem. I was published in another book, I will post that poem later.
