Sat sipping whiskey at 3am
Because it reminds me of you
As I remember
Your smile
Your taste
Your tongue
I realise this is not the bourbon I crave
That can only be found on your lips
sweetened by your kiss.

I'll sit, and sip, and dream of past memories
My drunken haze, thinking of your once familiar gaze
Darkness is my remedy.

For a fleeting moment
I thought
I knew happiness.
