The moment is no more alive then right now
May i borrow your flask for a minute
Finished your drink but dont know what was in it
~Now i spin in and under incredible lives~
Hear you smiling but think your lying
For now the politeness offers compensation
I thought you got the gist when i handed you "water"
Im sorry you vomited away everything that mattered
~Now i fall into denomic crimes where im finally alive~
I left you there in your own pile of discust
Skipped to the bar and spent all my free drink coupons
Then ordered more mixed drinks on my friends bill
Dont recall from then how i ended up in the bathroom stall
~Now i demonstrate how too much of anything is wrong~
Standing flimsy through shot after shot
Vision gets blurry but im still proving my rounds
Drank myself happy then drank a little more
Blacked out, hit my head, then woke up on the floor
~Now is never a promise~
In the bouncers arms i feel a little whimpy
I can handle anything so why am i leaving?
Felt a little dizzy and puked all over town
To be honest i dont remember much from there on out
~Now my addictions become clear through this haze~
Woke up in a wheelchair with a guy in a green suit
"Sarah, can you hear me? Sarah, why arnt you breathing?"
Open, close, black, white things seemed so adolescent
I tried to escape but couldnt walk without assitance
~Now hyperventaltion is no longer just a word~
Though i try to figure out how i do myself in
I can never point a finger at my own reflection
I keep up the habits and embrace the hurt
These addictions justify that the world is just a blur [comments] => 3 [counter] => 176 [topic] => 66 [informant] => LevyMetal [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => drugabuse )

I am impressed that your titles hold a mystery yet a peek of what you have written in regards to.

The word "Breathalizer" caught my attention because I have tested people before, lots.

But as I read this, I saw a dark side, pain, addiction from outside a clinical mind---from the mind of one going thru the cycle--hurting.

Even though this is a poem I feel tempted to ponder the beginning. To question what was the trigger and to ask what you see now and what you see next.

Enough ramblings..

I like your poetry.

Kie
