Write something beautiful.
I tell myself,
"Tonight,
I will write something beautiful."
I think..
as I drink wine from the bottle,
wine I chose because that particular taste
seems to **** the loneliness better than others.
Cheap moscato.
I feel somewhat like
the sad counterpart to a jay-z video,
sipping bottles and writing rhymes.
But my writes don’t rhyme,
and my bottle was $6.99,
bought by my cousin because I’m still too young to legally drink,
but somehow I can vote and go to war..
I could die, if I so chose, for the very country that tells me
it’s illegal to find some sort of way to **** the pit in my stomach.
But this is the alcohol talking,
and I’m starting to sound like I do this often...
Then again, the way I’m writing, if I told you I didn’t, you wouldn’t believe me anyway.
So yes world!
Cruel, sad world.
You drove me to a bottle I cant even own,
and somehow I’m still allowed to be
this
*******
sad.
Riddle me that...
..But then I remember that my problems pail in comparison
to those in other worlds,
and my demons are child’s play compared to victims
of all the other sins of evil-doers...
But you know what?
Tonight, I want to ******* feel sorry for myself,
and I don’t want to be sorry about it.
Because, my family is terrifying.
And I ran away from the clutches of a life I still believe
I’ll fall victim to in the end.
And the boy I still cry over,
finally told me that he loved me,
but regret it twelve hours later
when the whiskey had worn off.
I haven’t spoken to
any kind of god,
in longer than I can remember
and I doubt any of them would listen anyway.
At this point,
the men I’ve slept with no longer have faces
except for the one, with the whiskey and the sweet words..
and all I can do
is lay in bed
and wait for the world to slow the **** down
so I can figure out which ******* direction
I'm even going in.
So **** it,
that’s it.
There’s your something beautiful.
