Bottle Addiction
Genessee Celeste Mar 2014
This life is not what I wanted.
I just wanted to feel something.
My mistakes are caused by this, yet I continue to dismiss all I'm told.
I've taken the term bottoms up way too literally. Something about the empty bottles that built up. They built a tower and that tower has fallen all over this life and I can't seem to escape their presence.
The taste of this alcohol on the tip of my tongue almost tastes like happiness, I guess that's why I return.
I'm sorry for all I've caused you. I swear it was the alcohol talking.
I wish I could take responsibility for my bad actions but I forgot them when this bottle touched my lip.

Disappointment
Genessee Celeste Feb 2014
She thought about writing you. She told me she longer knows how to feel towards you. You've taken her and rung her out too many times. She says "he cares" like its a question and you can see disappointment in her eyes, with a side of hope. As disappointment grows, hope fades. Know that her hope only goes so far but disappointment won't go away. In the way she looks at you, it's there. How she carries herself, it's there. You've effected her in ways even she will never understand, but you can't see anyone but yourself. Her worst fear is becoming anything like you, see but you don't understand all the damage you leave behind just when you walk. You're consumed with yourself and it's sickening to call someone so selfish, so clueless your father. And I'm glad I wrote this because she never would.
