A shot of tequila
to loosen the mood,
and I feel you looking
but I move nervously,
because I don't
really want you...
but I've had
a shot of tequila,
or maybe two,
or maybe two more.
And now there's
no resistance left.
You catch me weak,
and it makes me sick,
but I still can't stop.
God, I don't want you,
please get away,
(is what I say on the inside)
but on the outside,
half ass kisses,
and no eye contact.
Why don't I stop you?
Jesus, I'm disgusting,
and weak,
and I think that I need
another shot of tequila

oh yes this sounds like this weekned for me... Goodness me what is it about alcahol and loosening your inhabitions it really DOES make a fucking mess of things (excuse the language of course!)

LOL I've have had these Tequila moments but choose not to have them anymore. The spirits take control when this mind, and mood altering liquid is ingested. I love the whole thought process written here. Seems like you were fighting the encounter, and the alcohol won. Great musing. Surely worthy of merit.
Congratulations on winning the Bronze.
This poem takes me aback in the memory of those hazy, crazy days of the past where the drink was my best friend. (Shakes head) the visit is a good reminder that this is a road I don't want to tread again. Excellent work here poet! I had to chuckle (not funny) but my conscious said; "yes, I know this story".
Much Love ♥

this is great..."God, I don't want you, / please get away, / (is what I say on the inside) / but on the outside, / half ass kisses, / and no eye contact." my favorite part. i love the ending "i think that i need another shot of tequila"...there is such a vivid picture painted in this piece. i like that it is clear to see. and i am sure everyone has felt this way once (at least)...another great write from you...i think i have a new favorite!
