You wreck me
My lover,
this half empty bottle,
my only companion.
A toast-
to poison on all fronts.
the sweetness to my lips,
the cold bite on my tongue.
The burn in my gut,
The cloud in my mind.
Cheers-
to cloudy days.
to rain and pain.
to smirnoff
to turn us off.
to my friend,
hand on knife.
You wreck me-
in my cloudy lungs,
in my drowning throat,
my dying cells.
cheers-
to my favourite cancer
in the stick.
A toast-
to the boy who ruined me,
whose men could put humpty
together again.



with every slide i take
another layer of you rubs off
into the air
high above my head
and you're humming along
to words i haven't written yet
with every strum i take
your steps meet up the beat
perfectly
this accident was meant to be
If you could see me
