The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Head On

Here I have sat for what seemed

like an eternity.

A life long wait for 

the unknown.

Slowly diminishing are the

fears which drug

me down.

So low that I could

go no further.

And now, it begins

to change.

It begins to unravel

in my heart. 

This emotion is continuous.

Addictive.

Pleasant.

A newness of

sorts.

I will not run.

I will not hide.

I will face this like 

the man who yearns

for what once use to be familiar

in my life.

Only this time, 

Im prepared.

I will wait

and see

what this has in

store

for me.
