"are you okay?"

"of course I am."
"what could be wrong?"

something is wrong
something deep
drink another
dip another
snort another
let whatever is wrong die
the answer to the question at the end of the next bottle
***** your insecurities
leave them all behind
forget her and leave emptiness in her place
embrace it
your only companion
an empty heart left to an empty man
define yourself by them
define yourself by a girl attached to your hip
and pay the ******* consequeces
smile and laugh on the outside
but continue your internal bleeding
wipe away the blood from your nose
cover up the scars on your arms
and stare again at your empty phone
text her one more time and expect no response
drive through empty streets
feel comfort in knowing that your are alone
