Happily ever after?

Happily Ever After by teresa-lynn via Deviant Art.com

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
