When you sit at the bar
A chapter in the book A collection
Liquor in my veins
by Harper J
As I sit at the bar I have only one thing on my mind, So my eyes now scan all of the drinks before me As I hungrily wait in line. As the liquid of sin now touches my lips I soon enjoy each mouthful of regrets, But this is just the beginning The night is not over with yet. My taste buds signal how refreshing As my mind gets drawn in, So it doesn't take long for the effects Of the poison to begin. Once in my veins The drink trip begins, It always starts pleasant , But then ends in sin. It's the juice of confidence Such a potion of power, No one can escape it, It's like nectar of a flower. The poison rushes through my veins It's target is my brain, I can't stop now, That would be insane. So as I sit at the bar I continue to remember the time before, The memories of same place Different day, Keep haunting me And won't go away. It's now my turn to get served " What would you like" ? The bartender asks, I smile weakly at my new found task As I tell him "Just give me a pure orange in a very large glass " |
