I feel as though
I've been letting red wine pass through my lips
Tasting only it's bitterness and none of it's beautiful numb
I've been crunching on cardboard that I've mistaken for holy
communion
And everyone else is too ashamed for my sake to call me a fool
I've been in a fevered, drugged up half dream, unable to escape the waking world and never having touched a pill
My whole perception is teetering and careening
Seasick between inability to escape, and everything feeling unnervingly too real
But nothing is beautiful in this fairy land.
