bliss and beer...

meh

I want bliss.

I want something more than this

More than fading memories of friends

Who said f**k you

When my going got tough,

who said that friends stay when s**t gets rough

And they’re the hardest

Right now

On the turning point of my time

And a withering of my life

As my head pumps broken blood

To a brain that is losing its mind

With migraines of pointless pain

That are making me go blind.

Used to be the one leading

But, now I’ve fallen in line

And I’ll be the last one

Till they’re payin wages in dimes

But I got one

And she’s all I got

So the rest of em

Can f**k themselves and rot.

As I waste away, no bed for a cot

Looking for a new one where I wont get shot.

Dont think that’s askin for a lot

But maybe not.

I just wanna be free of here

And be able to afford a beer

That’ll make me feel better at the end of the day

When I’ve finally gotten through all that s**t that ain’t goin my way.

Hahaha, this one made me laugh. It is very well written and i love the little rhymes that you have scattered throughout the poem. My favourite lines would be
"As my head pumps broken blood

To a brain that is losing its mind

With migraines of pointless pain

That are making me go blind."

Oh boyo, if I was with you right now I would have a six pack or three of beer. Some metal on the ipad and say, "f**k it, let's get s**t faced and scream it out". My friend you me and every other man before and after us have felt what you wrote. But like the song goes, we carry on.


Still and all beer on me.
