Embrace The Silence
Loose Lips…
Hello Actions my old friend
It’s Consequence, I’m back again
Stupid stuff you say comes at a price
It’s never smart to go without advice
Because your words, can cost you heavily
Just wait and see
Next time embrace, the silence
Fools will lie, they did not know
But stupid, like a virus grows
It seems the public schools did not teach you
Common sense it seems cannot reach you
Your stupid crap will sentence you to hell
Can’t you just embrace, the silence

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.
