It's tease time again and sometimes you just don't need 200 words.
Once you have read what I have to say if you click on the image above you will be taken to a magical portal, where all my amazing friends are waiting for you with teases of their own.
Thank you.
My Way
Regrets
I've had a few.
Fuck
Frank that's one hell of an understatement, I've had a lot more than
a few
Taking
another mouthful of the burning liquid from the bottle I shivered, as
it set fire to my throat on the way down.
Sitting
there with the only friend I had in the world, a bottle of Jack
Daniels, I wondered why the fuck I was still here. Then realized it
was probably because if I tried to end it I'd fuck that up just like
I'd fucked up everything else I'd ever tried.
Another
mouthful and the haunting words of Frank Sinatra filled my mind
again.
Too
few to mention.
Yeah
right Frank I'd had that fucking many I had lost fucking count. The
self-harming, the failed marriages, in fact my failure at fucking
everything and anything. Still none of it mattered any more, not now,
now I could, and would, do anything I wanted.
The
trouble was though all I wanted to do was empty this bottle and then
start another, if I was still awake.

There are times when I was right there just like that. This brought back a lot of emotions for me, yet despite where he is, for some reason I still feel there's hope. Good work, Julez and it also taps into what I love and hate that song.
I've been there Julez; ten to fifteen years ago. I know the pain, know the pain. I was a widower in 2000. Very painful memories.
Oh wow, that's one heck of a powerful flash. Well done, Julez!
