Relapse Of A Sex Addict
This wasn't supposed to happen.
Here I am naked with some chick.
She's sleeping next to me.
Good thing. I got to scram fast.
I hope she does not wake up.

Methamphetamine
Needles were never meant to pierce your skin.
My dear, you are not a doll.
Those needles can't sew you back together again.
My dear, you are not a doll.
Those needles can't sew you back together again.

Lust
intensity winds its thistling vines
binding limbs against an intricate pleasure
kneading a distraction to soothe the ache
chafing me raw In significant measures

Scotch
Two fingers of Scotch
Hits better
Than five of yours
Ever did
Hits better

Ever did

Loss
Loss of youth
Loss of truth
Loss of innocence
Loss of consequence
Loss of control
But what hurts most is
Loss of hope
Loss of truth
Loss of innocence
Loss of consequence
Loss of control
But what hurts most is
Loss of hope

Future Ben
Oh, I’m gonna pay for it tomorrow
No question
No doubt
It’s here, my pain
I’m gonna pay for it
Tomorrow
No question
No doubt
It’s here, my pain
I’m gonna pay for it
Tomorrow

Liquid, Soothing
Liquefy my mind
I got nothing else to give
Heathen of mischief
I got nothing else to give
Heathen of mischief

When One Gets Drunk At A Bar
Josh gulped a few beers.
He saw Kate's dress sliding off.
Josh woke up naked.
He saw Kate's dress sliding off.

Liquid Echoes Of Despair
chasing shadows lost
inside an empty shot glass
whiskey and false hope
inside an empty shot glass
whiskey and false hope

Beer
Drink the bottle down
Feel the warming numbing rush
Diluting the soul
Feel the warming numbing rush
Diluting the soul

Vodkhaiku
Clear liquid, ice cold
Burning warmth in every sip
Glass echoes its tale.
Burning warmth in every sip
Glass echoes its tale.
