Get drunk on hope.
Be high on life.
Get wasted in your passions.
These kinds of drugs cause less strife.
Sleep with your dreams.
Have one-night-stands with doubt.
Kiss the moon, kiss the stars.
I think this is what life's all about.
Rather than indulging in risky business,
The things that only hurt you,
Indulge in empowerment and positivty.
It's never too late to start anew.
For me, this poem is about getting rid of the negative in our lives and bringing in the positive. Granted I'm no saint, but I'd rather indulge in my dreams and passions than *** and drugs and drinking.
It's about identifying the things you don't like in your life, and changing them. Easier said than done. That's something I struggle with, letting go of things that hurt me. This poem is a push for myself to practice what I write and get rid of what weighs me down.
