The words that sit on my tongue threaten to spill. Yet I soak them up since I know your ear is not a lending one. Your words sting; but the absence of them leaves a scar so deep, I couldn't tell you where it ends. My lungs fill up with pent up aggression, making it hard to catch a breath. I've begun to drown in my thoughts, While you gulp them down and watch. Do you remember me telling you: "I don't drink." You're the reason that has changed.

Cheers to you.
