damnatio ad bestias

5th of January,  2015.

(Cheers to the broken-hearted.)

Your scent still lingers in my bed
Your image scattered in my head
Pop another pill, force myself to swallow
Just maybe it won't make my heart so hollow

"Love knows no fear", you said
So I go ahead and took the bait
Not knowing what's inside your mind
I follow through and misread the sign

It does feels sweet, falling in love
A concoction that I will never get enough
Few drips to knock me out of breath
and a bottle to shoot me right to death

I drunk it slowly, glass by glass
Thinking that it wouldn't cause me any mess
Oh how foolish one's mind can be
Love is never my cup of tea

So now I lay down with my bare soul
I left my heart to be consumed by ghouls
Should have listen to what I've been told
Love is as sweet as medicine, and now I'm out cold.
