A laudnum laced kiss
From whiskey drenched lips
Numbs the pain until morning
Morphime tears collected in vials
Sold to empty eyed children
Those addicted to anesthsia since birth
Needle marked arms from heroin nights
Connected dots with tattooed lines of blood
Create a picture drawn of unsteady hands
Opium induced nightmares and
Mescaline coated dreams
They swirl together and conflict
Smoothly toxic aqua vitae
Dulls the senses, thus the ache
Mellow tasting alcohol, be my lover tonight
Falling further into nothing
The frightening place that it is
Swallow that last sip of Chardonnay
Now wait for paralysis
As you lose yourself until morning.
