“chug the water,” she said so kindly
i sigh and look at it like it’s whiskey, that it might be the remedy
because maybe the drink needs me like i need it
we form a bond of another and cope with this world together
i laugh as i sip, thoughts rumble in my head
can’t walk, can’t talk, seems my mind has stumbled to bed
the memories need sleep like i feed off energy
i slam my face to the ground, pound my soul to give me one more
beg and plead, but the door closes
“just one more,” i said as i hang from a lonely thread
everything seems gone, i don’t have a home
i just wait for the endless call, the phone that’ll never ring
the words that i want more than anything
i grasp, i touch, i slip on affection of a beautiful liquid
the shine, how it slides like fine wine
my throat lingers with happiness as the void becomes dismissed
twice too many has the affair with life come to a near
dancing on a lone toe, the fears are too many
hands act as wings as they carry me
my life has gone to shambles
the once handsome has unfortunately lost his balance
his whiskey water was left in his honor
but sadly his only daughter, has too, fallen under
