Poem
I believe drink gave thee the lie last night. I believe you were so down by life that maybe a drink was able to sooth your soul, make you forget your problems, help you remember that you're worth something more than a home girl. You drank more than you could handle and imagined a future of me and you but little did you remember that's the reason why m and y are separated in the alphabets. I believe drink gave thee the lie last night. You saw me sitting from across the room and I never showed you signs of something more than a friend. You saw a future maybe, the one maybe and you needed liquid courage, mmh but it turned into a liquid lie. It made you believe that I was so inlove with you that you carrase me with your eyes and undress me by licking your lips because the liquid lie gave you confidence you never could handle and how devastating it is to look at you and see nothing more but a friend. A friend who let drink lie to her and thought that I loved her. I believe drink gave thee lie last night, I say this lying in bed next to an empty soul with so much liveliness but sadly she isn't the same girl who's cherry I popped because drink gave her the lie and I'm just an illusion to what she can never have. I believe drink gave thee the lie last night and I'm sorry but drink has faded into the night because I believe now regret is giving you the drink in the morning and you're so ashamed that drinking at night has become distant memory, a past present future a never to be seen again belief. ~Low-Key Poet?? -Sihle Simelane
