Acting Out
Not a care in the world
Nothing surfaced that day
Just a vision in my head twirled
My actions left everyone with nothing to say
Pure shock with little value
Keep the change
I’m half way through
Two dozen valium
Ready to start the day
Chapter...oh who knows?
Starring myself
In this alcoholic play
Starting to wonder if I exist
Its bliss I seek but pain I find
I focus my glare to tell the difference
But it’s hard to see through this alcoholic mist
