Still a little drunk
By Dejected_Worth
being better than you
I've dreamed of this
to only wake empty handed
(and still a little drunk)
They painted you a saint
the perfect pillar of Victorian clay
Romanesque and Godlike, framed to
so small a scale
(and still a little drunk)
The chemical smile
hid horrible lies
Tangible sin, atrocity hides
in the glint of blue eyes
human arms bent to mock wings
a taste of fate less hypocrisy
and we have fallen (as if to death)
to chance the slim hopelessness
to wake in the arms of a loving God
wide eyed and oblivious
(and still a little drunk)
