It's not the first lone lovers day.
And since history repeats,
probably not my last.
It is my first time,
not devouring all the wine,
creating another empty heart.
You know,
the plastic kind
filled with salted remorse.
Instead I'll smile on the moments
when we really did share love.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.
