It’s a dark, lonely night, and I am sitting on my bedroom floor a bottle of stolen ***** on one side, and the ghost of you on the other
I take another swig and realize that maybe I spend so much time kissing the mouths of bottles now because I know I can’t kiss yours anymore maybe I like the way the liquid makes my insides burn because it reminds me of how I felt whenever you touched me
I’ve been counting the days since you’ve left and I’ve realized that maybe thats why I’ve been drinking so much because every time I do it feels like for just a moment I can forget about you I can forget about the way we promised each other the world but could barely gather enough tinder to keep ourselves warm
