sober still.
Simple only
taking pills to
fall asleep
turn away and
stomach pains
crawling gentle for
an empty piano
song in the dark
sullen colored
ceiling fan,
how do I escape you?
not in this life
things change
I ‘m always
sober
night lasts
forever, now
I hear a different song
and then there’s
the
sunrise on your
shoulder
distant. Humming.
Its been a long
time
I know that I must....miss...
I feel the pills
I touch the
silence
simple only
eggs crawling
gentle,
for an empty piano
song
in the dark
