It's only one day,
and I feel that all
the times I am alone
can be summoned up
in a bottle of wine.

The sadness drains
the darkness,
and I'm here.

I'm not sad.
I'm happy that
the experience is
all I have.

The poems and
the intoxication.
The lyrics and
the music.

All I can say is I'm
here lost and confused,
but I'm still lingering
in the darkness
like all the souls.
