Abstinence

Abstinence I love you.

You make everything better.

Life is easier to deal with when you have

Abstinence.

The days go by smoother,

Moments are filled with hazy bouts of joy,

Sparks of creativity,

            And laughter.

There are no arguments,

No complaints when you have abstinence.

Even the word ‘abstinence’ tingles

            And evaporates off the tongue

            The moment it touches it.

I love you abstinence,

You make life worth living.

 

Oh, wait…

 

Did I say abstinence?

 

I meant

           

Absinthe.

My gut was telling me something was off but I didn't trust it. I'm a rather sober person (just look at that avatar) but creativity and abstinence just don't mix haha.

Creative. :)
