An Empty Bottle

by JustAFoolInLove   Apr 25, 2005


I drown in guilt,
The bottle’s empty,
What have I done?

I’m suffocating,
My skin is crawling,
I feel it take me in

I scream for mercy,
I wanted to end this pain,
This uncontrollable guilt inside,
But, instead,
I hurt more
Than I ever thought possible
With thoughts of the girl I love
The one I’m leaving behind

Oh, take me back,
Cruel world of hate,
Let me see her face
Let it catch
My searching, hopeless eyes
One last time,
To say goodbye

I vomit on the floor,
My grief burns in my throat,
I try to rid my aching stomach
Of the pills that tear me away from her

    Zac!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That actually hurt me, like the bullet thing again.....it's stinging pretty badly.

    should I be quieter about my love for you? Is it something I should keep secret? Is that what you want? I wouldn't like it because i do love you from the bottom of my heart, I'd just do anything to make you happy.

    In Emma's wise words of wisdom, it was sweet in an f-ed up sort of way. Oh, babe, how lucky she is to have someone like you. And, how lucky you are for her. I'm glad you are here... heart you, babe!
