I sip on sweet liquor
(6)
Till all that I can see are your words on a page
(12)
They encapsulate me
(6 again)
In the way another life does to a dreamer
(12 again)
The way a stranger does
(6 never before)
To a heart break lover not yet broken enough
(12 once more)
I sip on sweet liquor
(Back to 1)
Till the abyss is but a clown to be laughed at
(12 smiles)
Maybe life is fleeting
(6 for a while)
If so, I’d quite like to spend its moment with you
(12 smiles again)
If all's well that ends well
(6 soon to end)
One last smile shared with you ought to be enough
(12 without a rhyme)
I sip on sweet liquor
(1 once more)
Till it drowns me in a pool of secret giggles
(12 smiles a last)
Immersed in amnesia
(6 glances past)
Maybe it's that joke of yours, I lost it somewhere
(12 a drought, dies of thirst)
Among these blurred pages
(6 smiles a first)
