empty bottles, empty words

35 5 13
                                    

now you speak,

but all the words that come to me
are just the ones I learned from you:
"goodbye" and -

...

there's no getting used to being with you,
and there's no use in being with you

pretty sure as hell,

pretty sure as well:
I too may contradict myself,

but I was full of substance,
when there were always just empty bottles on your shelves

right back from the start

and I might still think you're cool,
but it takes being honest to be considered as art

and a night with you
is nothing more than just a darker day

and it's okay,

and it's okay.

little poem from some time ago :)
party is over, just empty bottles and empty words...

a little while back I came up with this saying "the night is just a darker day" and I have no idea whether this already existed or if my mind just made it up, but I just thought it was funny... :)

I really hope you liked this piece and thank you so much for reading! <3
