Forget

FORGET
Your legs turn to liquid
Feet weigh a tonne
There's a firework show in your belly.

Your hands turn to stumps
Eyes sting from the light
And elephants dance on your forehead.

The drugs are next door 
The water's much further
But you attempt and your brought to the floor.

The world just went dark 
There's a bump on your head
Yet you get up an attempt the next step.

A loud noise is heard
Something has fallen
You open your eyes and realise that it's you.

You're tired exhausted
More than ever before
And decide that it's now time to rest.

So you let your lids close
You relax every muscle
And forget to take your last breath.
