Friends

I made a new friend today,
her name was rum.
she made me feel numb,
my throat burning,
words threatening to fall
off my tongue.
my eyes grew heavy,
as she whispers words that put
me through ecstasy,
floating endlessly.
my head aches when she gets louder,
and the burn in my throat travels
down into my stomach.
I can feel her leaving now,
I can feel the bile rising,
the feeling burning through my chest.
I wonder if it will feel the same
if you were to leave me too.
