Filling the void



Save me!
My mouth used to form smiles
Now I find myself frowning
My head used to be held high to the heavens
Now...
Grounded
So, I will sit here and down
Drink after drinks, and drink even more drinks
One hour, two hours, three
Drink a couple days
Drink until I am in a daze
Detached from reality
One moment, two moments, three moments, and the next
Spilling my tears in shot glasses
Sipping on dreams, wishing I was a queen
Love and respected
His love once there
Now undetected
Red flags
Red flags
Stop signs
Red
Remember...you're past
What they had put you through
Only angels were there
To help you
One rum and coke, two of them, three of them, and four
Rum added to coke
Removes the mind from a yoke
Stuck in bondage
Life placed me in
Fighting to be comfortable in my own skin
