I was once your high life: ✨tequila
sunrise✨; dancing by the moon. We
were ‘sposed to age like fine wine…
your kiss was whiskey - love,
I assumed, (but it
was always just)
eighty-one
percent
✨proof✨.

oh, the end parallel between alcohol proof and relationship stability - excellent!!
I thought there was a familiar element to this! Great reinvention!
Oooo, you expanded it soooo brilliantly! I loved it so much!
Very nicely done, my friend.
Nice! quite clever.
