I'm going to drown at the profundity of the blades-
silvery and glistening, pale and stale against my skin-
flailing through discarded, waves of shards of thoughts of you.
I down the beer like the arid earth yearns for the rains,
fast and breathless; a mind parched, a thirst quenched.
Tomorrow will bring the sunshine of another day,
while I am here-in the dark-much intoxicated to fully care.
Still in the past.
