Saturday Night

Saturday Night

A Poem by AaronFreitas
"

This is my lonely Saturday night... choosing no fun.

"

It’s Saturday night 7:26 pm…

I am sitting on my couch all alone.

I’m thinking, deciding on the night.

Do I go out, have fun and live it up?

Or should I sit here and watch Netflix?

Watch, all alone with nothing but a beer….

It sounds depressing but I have no one to share with.

I want to cuddle but I have no partner.

I want to kiss but there’s no woman with me.

I want to feel alive but life is stuck on pause.

What to do, should I sit and wait?

It’s Saturday night, and I am telling a story….

A story of how each night goes, the story of my life.

I guess I’ll choose self-destruction tonight.

Pop open this beer, wrap up this blunt….

Medicate all pains away, clear my mind,

Stare at the t.v. with only a beautiful woman in mind.

I’ll share this moment with no one but myself…

It’s Saturday night, how do the rest of you feel?

The Netflix, the couch, the blunt--the revolving safety blanket prison for the anxious. Wonderful perspective. Fresh in the form, yet so, so familiar. Great write, man, I particularly like the line which includes 'life is stuck on pause', it compliments the scene perfectly.

Thank you Ilerah... I appreciate your kind words my friend :)
Sounds like my kind of night, blunt and a beer, that's safe!
But there's no wrong in wanting more my brother.
Great right about summing up and evening and the thoughts that lurk...

Oh yeah! Last night was that night haha
I appreciate your willingness to share Aaron, it takes courage. I have lived through struggles in the past and I struggle at times with life in the present as well, seems like there is always something... I am personally trying to come to terms with my responsibility in these struggles all the time and own it for myself. I believe we all create our obstacles in order to become who we are fully. Spirituality plays an important part in the process and I believe there are many paths spiritually, but for me its never something that I give up to, or on, and I try hard not to shift blame or responsibility to others whether the "other" is my higher power or people. I am accountable... I just thought I would share my own personal thoughts with you, as you ended your write with the question how do the rest of us feel... take care, Todd

Thank you Emily... it was more of an emotional, personal... just write kind of piece. Thanks :)
This made me sad.. :(
I'm sorry you're alone Aaron. Don't give up. You'll find her.. Trust me, it comes from the least expected place, at the least expected time..

This piece was amazing though. I loved the detail. I could feel your loneliness, your pain..
