at two a.m., i like to listen to one of my playlists and  dance & spin to it
resulting into yet another sleepless night with drunken thoughts
it's inevitable, anyway; this is the best hour to be true with the moon
so i scribble down these wasted words and happen to find myself with the idea of you (again)
and it's terribly upsetting to know that the only thing my lips are capable of caressing is nothing but this glass of red wine

the last thing i knew, it wasn't the playlist that was making me dance like john travolta, or spin like barbie from the nutcracker— it was you

Faith in God
Faith in love
Faith in life

Faith to me is like a dove
It's there for you to look at
Beautiful though small
But it's free and won't stay trapped

Having faith is like walking on ice
Difficult and easy to fall
If there's one small crack
The ice could break and end it all

I won't say faith isn't needed
For that would be a stretch
But faith is hard to keep
There one day and gone the next

Faith can keep us going
When we feel alone
But misplaced faith
Can hit you like a stone

I wish I had more faith
Unpredictable though sweet
Maybe then I would be happy
And no longer cry myself to sleep

The Angel

the strangest thing was
Wben I awoke
from my drunken stupor.
The drunk tank was empty.
Except for me..
The foul smelling
mix of ***** and defecation
Still  filled my nostrils.
The wrenching of my stomach,
Told me I had  survived another binge..
The half light of a moonbeam
Peeped in through the window bars
of my familiar cell.
Thats when I saw her.
She stood over me so white
Glowing Translucent lightness.
kindness glowing in  her face
i looked deep into her beautiful eyes.
Oh her eyes
so pure and beautiful.
She knelt beside me
Folded her wings of gossamer
About me.
she had tears in her eyes.
Are you not tired of this?
she asked softly.
Do you not want to enjoy the
beautiful world he made for you.
Do you want your children back?
She prayed for me.
For me a worthless drunk.
she was weeping for me.
Her tears fell onto my head
Like a baptism
I feel reborn.
She knelt in the human
waste in the filthy cell
And prayed for me.
Then she melted into the light.
That was the day
I stopped drinking
