A Hug, a Beer, and a Long Kiss

by OnlyEggy

I need a hug, a pillow may do. I can bury my head and yell, Fuck You. I can squeeze it as hard as I want as I sob, strangling the life out of the lifeless feathers Throw it across the room, against the wall and pick it up, knowing it will let me hug it still Yeah, I don't need you for a stupid hug. I need a beer, a tall one will do. I can bury my mind in dizzing sobs, Yelling Fuck You at the side of the can, I can squeeze it till it crushes under my grip smiling at the sound of its struggling tin skin Throw it across the bar, into the trash letting my sorrows drown in the piss colored drink Yeah, I don't need you for a stupid beer. I need a long kiss, fifteen minutes ought to do. I can bury my tongue into her throat, gasping for air as we struggle to breathe I can squeeze my lips around hers and I'll relish the lipstick staining my shirt Throw it across my heart, stained in red letting your memory dissipate in ravenous lust Yeah, I don't need you for a stupid kiss.
