"Empty Bottles"

Folder: 
Loss of Love

Drink from empty bottles…

Shatter the glass against a wall.

The sound stings the ears;

Slices cut my heart.

Left me there and I didn’t cry,

Thought I didn’t care;

All was just a lie.

I reached out to touch you,

Feel you one last time

Only to feel air.

Wish I was there…..

In place of her,

But I’m here.

Go out on the street at night,

Do a crazy dance

And scream so loud.

When the tears come I hide;

Can’t just let you see

The pain you’ve caused me.



Drink from empty bottles…

Shatter the glass against a wall.

The sound stings the ears;

Slices cut your heart.

Thoughts remain fuzzy now,

Actions oh so dizzy;

Stay out late.

Walk home with a stranger;

Let him hold you tight,

Forget the danger.

Regret and shame afterwards

Doesn’t even measure

To the pain.

Just can't get over it,

And you hate yourself even more.

Don't know how to leave from here,

He shut you outside the door.



She drinks from empty bottles…..

Shatters the glass against a wall.

The sound stings her ears,

And Slices cut her heart.

In this pain, she's not alone.
