The Flask

Time has gone
Still standing strong
It wasn’t a mistake

All I did was take
Trying not to break
To remain numb to the pain

To refrain from breathing
Hanging from the ceiling
Was it worth the beating?

Maybe so she can live
Take it slow and breathe
Just exhale and repeat

Seems so simple
Doesn’t it?
Instead of sinking in the pit

Just let the blood drip
Down your finger tips
To the water
Remember the laughter?
The joy obstructed by disaster…
For that, you are the master

Just walk a little faster
Stop being such a blunder
Don’t you ever wonder?

How often must you travel?
To your happy ever after…
Can’t change the past

This won’t last
The present is your task
You won’t get it from that flask.
