I was senseless. But what can I do? My head was spinning, Looking to cling to a heart That was never there. I stumbled and tripped, Landed face first On rejection without A chance for redemption. At least when you left You couldn’t see me Crestfallen, bared, Stripped of all my pride. Laying on my back, Blasting my thoughts away With my one true love Travelling through my ears Into my poor excuse for a brain, Shutting it down For at least a few. When I woke, All I could think about Was how to salvage What was left to save. I know I need to lie, But deep in my heart You will find a place Concealed by a door With a lock of sobriety Placed upon it. It knows, that despite My pathetically dulled senses I meant every word And I would ***** them out again If it would only, Cheer you up Instead of Letting You Go.

I guess I'm a clingy drunk.
I was senseless. But what can I do? My head was spinning, Looking to cling to a heart That was never there. I stumbled and tripped, Landed face first On rejection without A chance for redemption.
