One Night

When I awaken, I look next to me, Uncertain of who you are, I begin to shudder, The surrounding room unrecognizable, Not cognizant of how I arrived, My memory lacking all the details, Not fully knowing what happened last night, Worries run rampant, As I try to sneak out, Hoping I used protection, Yet feeling much doubt, Out the door I walk, Hopeful it’s nothing but a thing of the past, Praying you don’t call, That I never bump into you again, In my car I travel, Uncertain of where I am, Receiving constant flashbacks, Promising myself it’ll never happen again, Right as I return home, I hop into the shower, Trying to cleanse myself of filth, Seemingly unable to scrub hard enough, I hit the bars the following night, Hungover yet again, Uncertain of who is next to me, Uncertain of who I am.
