Liquid Evil

Sitting on my own
Bottle in my hand
Chewing on this bone
I can barely stand

Eyes are filled with blood
Lips raw with shattered words
Heart is smeared with mud
My pulse a broken bird

The liquid on my lips
Is my goodnight kiss
Poison is what drips
Poison is my wish

This evil is my choice
It’s what I need to see
Creeps into my voice
Creates a person that is not me

Rotting from inside out
I’m doing this to myself
And in it’s there’s no doubt
Not for goodness nor for health

I want this blinding madness
This choking sense of numb
This prickling sense of sadness
Is my rule of thumb

I’m swallowing my pain
Sitting here on my own
Smothered in disdain
I deserve to be alone

Bottle in my hand
Alone here I lie curled
In this distant land
I call the cruel world

This is my solution
This is my retreat
Lying in pollution
I admit defeat

Dont worry, this poem doesn't relate to me.

Awesome poem, and I'm glad it doesn't relate to you.

"Life is too confusing, but I like it that way!"
