(A drunken life) pt.1 - A poem of pity...

To the full...

Wallet almost empty, vision fading into the night

A quick slip & trip to the cold ground refreshes a hot thought as I make my way into another neon light

In my best, I give another bar a test, putting down what I hope to be enough

Helping me reach my point of no return, to avoid a reality I've found too tough

Speech slurring, mind blurring, I've done again, my weakest point so dull to find

The whispers gone, I finally find peace in a mess of a mind

Spreading a thought a mile long, I walk slow into the meaning

As I lose my way, I mumble a verse of pain instead of singing

Slowly I lowly fall into another I don't care

Waking shaking in a cold alleyway, my past, I don't care to share

It still stings as the day waking sings

Moments never meant to have happened become clear again, so I find myself, & we make our way back to reality

Knowing another night, I won't fight when I feel that formality

Another bit of cash...

An I can crash...

Till this body breaks...

I'll do anything to relieve these deep hearted shakes...
