slow motion implosion
Unrealistic expectations
Please erase my drunken sins
Such a lonely cynic I've become
Just a shadow of the former one.
The ugly truth
My daunting addiction
Just a desperate self-seeker
Obsessed with affliction.
The chemical recoil inside of my brain
An emotional drip I long to maintain
Though soon I'll collapse
in some stellar implosion
Have a seat, watch me crumble
I'm coming down in slow-motion.
Please erase my drunken sins

Obsessed with affliction.
The chemical recoil inside of my brain
An emotional drip I long to maintain
Though soon I'll collapse
in some stellar implosion
Have a seat, watch me crumble
I'm coming down in slow-motion.

.... a very powerful, poignant, and courageous write. Your emotional story in verse reveals great "strength and "talent". Poetry can be a compelling vehicle and a driving force in the process to heal and help others to heal.....love writes that spill from the soul. Bravo!!!
