There was a time where I relished his drunk touch.
The feeling on the dance floor,
Of his lips on mine,
His hands on my waist.
I felt power from his touch.
It affirmed what I wanted to feel-
I wanted to feel beautiful,
dangerous,
fierce.
I believed for a while that his drunk attention proved these things to be true.
Now I know differently.
Now that our drunk love has burned out,
I understand I am the only one who can make these things true.
I will no longer find power in drunk love.
I will find power in myself.
