Cheap Vodka
I used to draw from you
Drank your spirit
But you lost yourself in your own lies
And then you wanted the truth
But only if it was your truth
How many times could I want you
How many times was it not enough
You were once always by my side
But you challenged me by never exposing the real darkness
What do I do with you now
I’m walking away
You are stale beer
Bad wine
Cheap vodka
Not worth my scorn
Or even my lies
Drank your spirit
But you lost yourself in your own lies
And then you wanted the truth
But only if it was your truth
How many times could I want you
How many times was it not enough
You were once always by my side
But you challenged me by never exposing the real darkness
What do I do with you now
I’m walking away
You are stale beer
Bad wine
Cheap vodka
Not worth my scorn
Or even my lies

this cuts to the core of how indifference is more final than hating the one who's done you wrong.

Speak this is so raw and deep ladened with so much pain. The last sentence sums it up so well.

Thx for reading Nadia
After I wrote it, I no longer felt anything and I was able to move on.

I felt much better after writing this and moving on.
It was a long battle of the mind but happily over.

Thanks Ella
Was working through the end of something when I write that awhile back. It helped me move on.

Deepness here in your words. Unfortunately when the effects of drinking them away seem like they're gone.....their memory lives in the emptiness of the bottle. Felt this. :(

Yes, flower, you are right.
It was a hard write after a painful experience.
Felt better though after penning it though.
Thx for reading and feedback.

"By never exposing the real darkness"
So touching and real. And seeing each other's broken places is the point, right? Insightful. Thank you, Sir. ;)

It takes a long time to get to the core. Often its just to scary to confront the need. Its a wild ride though, filled with joyful intense discovery. We know who we are, right ?
Thank you for following me.

Sometimes indifference is the only tool for walking away. Deal with the pain of it afterwards. Functioning, moving, breathing.

thought about this situation for a long time and then cut the cord or the cord was cut on me, or it was mutual
ironically we are friends now but it took some time to reshape
