MOET
Sitting here, contemplating my moves,
I'm slowly getting into the groove.
Drinking Moët to help me forget,
A lifetime's mistakes, the things I regret!
Should I push fate and empty the glass,
Swallow the grape or sit on my ass?
It doesn't dissolve the pain that I feel -
Burried deep thoughts wanting to heal.
Now...
I'm one glass away from reality's door,
One pulse away, that tempting last pour.
A heartbeat removed from meeting the floor -
Yet it doesn't relieve this random ache.
I made a choice, which I tend to do,
Put back the stopper, feeling the fool.
Moët my dear, our time's come to an end,
It wasn't so bad, was it, my friend?

It wasn't so bad at all, Fia, absolutely not! I hope the Moet made you feel better also, lol. I am so tempted to buy a bottle of red tonight in celebration of our little collaboration. Thank you for allowing me this opportunity. 😊

No amount of alcohol or drugs can take away what's been done. Only time and self-forgiveness can do that.

I love your meter. I see this as a metaphorical piece... pretty obvious. Musically lyrical and endearing. You have the magic...

A contemplative spill…
Although alcohol never truly saves anything in my opinion.
Excellent collab.

Heyyyy, I might have to try some Moet and just the word, itself rings off the tongue, beautifully. Great collaboration between you and Snaggy. Sometimes a little sip or two won't hurt. As long as we don't over indulge.

I do not like the dull routine. and boredom of an alcoholic person, but i like ''how'' you focus on the pain and death through very good expression,metaphor that enhance the idea portrayed..
Thank you for sharing your quill.

I may not be able to relate to the alcohol part but I can probably relate as to how you ended up with the glass in your hand. You guys put some magic together, nice poem.
