Jan 2013
Drape my conscience
In threads of spirits
And let reality's smog
Occlude our dumb wits

Soulless eyes reflect
Deranged, dusty lights
Bottles close at hand
Flung far into the night

Sobriety quickly fades
Unveiling bitter truths
Of enamored facades
And follies of the youth

The stark sky spins rapid
Emotions spilled on blackened walls
All sense of reason departs
And wild fantasies come alive

Wavelengths intertwine
Smiles rife with desires
Eyes slowly close half-way
And all hindrance expires

Bodies tenderly woven
Lips on insanity's lip
Mindless and uncaring
Hands in lustful grip

After the tryst is done
Our memory shall depart
We cling on to bitter *****
And the embers of the heart

When the smoke clears
And garish reason descends
Guilt follows; paths diverge
No memory of us remains.
I haven't had a drink in quite some time.
