I want to take shot after shot after shot of *****
Or whiskey
Or even gin
Any and all hard alcohol
To mask the resounding pain
Ricocheting throughout my worn-out body
As if it were a pinball machine
Swallow some poisonous liquor
Because I remember many years ago
How ***** intensified the irresistible attraction I held for you
YET.. there was always a tipping point
A few chugs past tipsy
Then I would begin throwing up
Finally intoxicated enough to set my mind free from your ribcage for awhile
Too sick to think about you
Because I would be
Too sick to think about anything
That is the only way I can hope to halt this overwhelming longing
To be embraced in your arms
One more time
