Escape is Improbable Now.

and ill write another line in self pity,
as the scars burn bright.
disappointment taunting a fragile mind.


images of painkillers and vodka sing,
in this mechanical silence.
the past,

a longing never to be fulfilled.


ill wish for sleep,
brought by a shallow glass.


and i'll swear again,
i never needed to be that perfect.
i'll swear again,
as dark dreams creep in.

    Au Contraire' My friend.

    I didn't think it was sketchy at all! I liked it! First of all, your title caught my eye right off the bat. I LOVE the title. Secondly, you used wonderful imagery here. Keep writing! You're good.

    Thanks for entering and best of luck.
