Drowned In Alcohol

By Shane

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Close your eyes Open your mouth And drown in alcohol Nothing matters when nothing makes sense Drowned in alcohol See yourself in perfect harmony Wasting thoughts and killing memories Rapidly feeling free, as your insides struggle to breathe Hide your face, from you soul, you leave yourself ashamed When you wake up in your head Washed up in the morning tide, Thoughts all buried beneath sands As your waking up Rembrandts of a memory Remains of former glories Washed away with the tide Your life full, an empty glass Is all that life will take It’s all it takes Written April 8th, 2002 © on Apr 08 2002 03:05 AM PST   10 • 0
