Another

By Shadow lost to the light

Another shot of bourbon. Another broken glass.
Another spout of boredom. Another missed class.
Another round of laughter. Another topic crashed.
Another lie come after. Another adoring mass.
Another harmless wink. Another painful pass.
Another time to think. Another perspective mashed.
Another voice for the call. Another life treated as nothing at all.
Another chance to stumble and fall. Another rich dude who just plays ball.
Another love to surely come. Another hopeful heart left undone.
Another smile into a gun. Another spirit set on the run.
Another eye finally opened. Another soul in an awestruck moment.
Another chance and I'm hoping. I'm only a shell so I'm coping.
