Shattered Mirrors
Stumbling drunken stupor
Beating Hell into her
Snuffing out all possibility of Hope
Shattering Self-esteem so she couldn't cope
With a lit American Spirit
Slipping from slobbering loaded lips
While simultaneously screaming "I LOVE YOU!!!"
Scared into believing all the lies, subconsciously knowing the Truth
Stuck wondering how long must in wait for these memories to fade?
So that I can move on gracefully fearlessly facing another day
