"Have you ever seen someone create a rainbow with a 12-Gauge shotgun"
10
I'd thought about that new year's kiss
even during the months no one cared
about the holiday
Only to find my crush
with her ex, trying to decide
who's tongue tasted better
9
And while my ex
is receiving cute texts
from a new man,
I'm higher than I've
ever been
nurturing a borderline
****** relationship
with a bag of Doritos
8
And my friends were laughing
in the back seat
because I said
"The moon is sideways"
and I guess
they couldn't see the
poetry in that.
7
And though I didn't receive
a midnight kiss,
I'll most likely be receiving
a ticket for Indecent Exposure
in the mail.
So it wasn't a total loss.
6
And instead of wishing for happiness
I wished for the ability
to properly express the rest of my emotions
in hopes of achieving it.
5
And I hoped to dis-acquaint
myself from feeling lonely
in rooms so full of people
I can't even move
or think
4
And my friends are close
and I think they were
expecting more
3
And my sister
inadvertently became the
goddess of drunk girls
2
And seeing love fail
in nearly every direction,
I closed my eyes
1
People shout Happy New Year
but only truly wish it on
themselves
