Nov 2016
With the shattered glass upon the floor
I no longer can deny
No longer bottled up inside
Spilt out across the room
For all at the party to see
And laugh
As if it were caused by a stumble,
A drunken moment
But the reality of it all
Is my heart just struck a beat
As my heart and mind have been at war for sometime

I can no longer keep downing all this wine
Trying to act as if everything is just fine
I will no longer lie
I shall take this as a sign
I've been far too empty
That is all this drinking has shown me
And still yet I try
To find you resting inside
Underneath the sea of my misery
But you wont be, you wont be
No you have moved on, are living your own life
With your own parties which I imagine don't consist of you playing the fool
Your drinks remain amongst laughter not directed towards you
While my drink seeps into the living room carpet
Staining the moment
I'm not worth it and I'm not getting anywhere with this
I realized its all a lost cause
Getting you back won't consist of
Me losing myself in the night
It wont consist of me becoming your knight
No shimmering armor, no epic tale of conquer
No me and you left in the remaining pages of this tale
NO, NO, NO.
My wine is spilt and by wine I mean
My chances with the princess
My wine is spilt and by wine I mean
My chance with the princess
