Sudden Bliss

Midnight strikes

Up on the clock

We feel it pass

Our eyes look not

Slowly drifting

Past our limit

For this sin

Please be forgiveness

With every sip

The time hands tick

Down our veins

The poison drips

It's washed away

With ruby reds

Crystal whites

And water threads

Electrons fire

Out of control

Lost in confusion

Nowhere to go

Pathways merge

And sparks erupt

Assistance hurries

In a rush

It's still outside

So plain and simple

Take a sip

And life belittles

Problems that are

In our way

Persistent trouble

Rainy days

Pushed aside is

Sadness, sorrow

Though pity will reside

Sunrise tomorrow

And not for my life's

Unfortunate standing

Not for the deck

Which I have been handed

But because I chose

To indulge in this

Life's simple road

To sudden bliss
