Lying in the shower
With a bottle of cherry
Vodka has become a
Normal thing by now.
The water gets so hot,
It turns my skin red and
Makes the bathroom so
Steamy to the point of
Blindness.
I don't feel the heat.
I only feel the fuzzy warmth
Of the liquor,
And the flowing tears down my
Cheeks.
So yes, I drink.
And yes, I take pills.
I just want to feel something
Other than pain.
