(Dec 28, 1:23 am)

by @madeline-frosh

Drunk words are sober thoughts But my mind hasn't been working since you left And the drums that usually pound in my ears have grown silent Not even the thoughts in my sleep have allowed me to succumb to such things Like dreams of you, or us, or anything revolving around the way your fingers danced down my spine to put me to bed But the poison that is alcohol has brought my speech to a new level Words spewing out of my mind, into and out of my mouth making reference to the way you held my body late in the night And I'm sorry for texting you at 3am on a monday night, but goddamn it you were the most beautiful human being to ever cross my path And for that I thank you for sending my expectations through the roof of a home that we will never call our own
