Staring across the smoke filled table, ashtray
full of butts from the never-ending conversation,
I remember.
Times we shared that were so simple, without the
glossy eyes of an alcohol induced comfort,
I wonder.
If its better that it's easier to accept an
unfavorable outcome while still hoping for some
Salvation.
From the untold pains we both carry, bury
beneath stories of fun, tragedy, lonely nights
Shared.
With other people it's expected? it's accepted?
a don't ask, don't tell relationship, who is he? who is
She?
Carries only a fraction of you, a poor substitute,
part of the downward spiral, longing for my
Touch.
Me in the first moments and tell me if
everything will be alright because I'm
Finished.
Staring across smoke filled tables, ashtray
full of butts from the empty conversation.
