Once upon a time
I swallowed life in gulps
Trying to get drunk
On it’s swollen contradictions
Or maybe to poison myself
With the rigmarole
I was always hungry for more
But there was nothing
To satisfy that want
Then there was him
A part of it all
But walled off from me
Behind doors I couldn’t open
Now
He’s opened them all
Flying me to the moon
Filling the gaps
Forcing me to forget
Drunk on something new
Clinging to the edges
Praying it doesn’t crumble
Broken hearts
Thinking myself sorrowful
At every opportunity
But then
He kisses me
And reminds me
Of this here
This now
With him
That’s lovely, Mel. 🙂
