Bittersweet, lick the rim, feel the chill, on your skin. Piercing liquid, climbs down your throat Yet lifting up, in the room you float. Your vision struggles, to keep up. As you tip the glass, and begin to ****. And a grin streaks your face But it lacks itβs natural grace. Artificial happiness, Results in bitter loneliness. Regret always follows, When the day strays to tomorrow. Addiction keeps you faded Far into the moonshine You have waded. The bad taste Turns times to waste. Your twisted into a wicked trick. Whisky dreams come and go too quick. But life keeps going The pain, still growing. Without you even knowing.
