Sober eyes close
Absolved of all realities
Drenched in the indecisions of countless lies
I fall within myself
Burning in the alcohol
Sighing into the black abyss of exhausted excuses
The world continues to spin
And I lie within it
A lifeless corpse
Swimming in my own fumes of hard liquor
And chance motivation
To take one more sip
To delve into one more weightless emotion
For the false sense of security
For the desire to simply forget
For the excuse that I am too intoxicated
That I cannot think straight
So that I can simply forget
Author notes
Forgive the random upheaval. Written while intoxicated.
Please tell me what you think
