Member-only story
Drunk, Tennessee Whiskey on repeat
Not even slurring my speech
The Most High knew that I
Needed to keep this neat
So, I picked some flowers
Got them in the Backwoods somehow
I exhaled and remembered our last conversation
It’s hard to forget something that
You’ve waited so long to remember
Your lips never turned cold
And I am Axl Rose to November Rain
You keep me on fire
Twin flame
Lobsters that won’t get to mate, yet
So much sweet to cover the bitter in this pain
No one last time,
Not a long kiss goodbye
I lay awake at night, praying that I won’t die
Just in case you change your mind
Because I know that I’m first
Even when you are supposed to be where you are
You said Next Lifetime
And it hurt
So I’m just drunk
Tennessee Whiskey on repeat
Trying to memorize the lines for when
They bury me and you kiss
Then toss flowers on top of the dirt
Because I know that I’m first
Broken hearts do that
And I’m praying for you to be good
Hoping that he understands your worth
And will hold you when you cry
Middle of the night,
What could have been that can’t leave your mind
You’ll be old and gray
And I’ll be the sun on those days
Rays you smile at, not fearing being blind
Knowing it’s me
Drunk tonight…
Tennessee Whiskey on repeat
Not even slurring my speech
The Most High knew that I
Needed to keep this neat
For you, so it won’t smudge or smear
You can copy this to a private note
You can keep this clear…
