    The death of giving a damn Is absinthe for the soul Like a shattered glass Fragments of ego Strewn about the floor Two way mirror No reflection Staring back Yet watching Delusions of eloquence Faded parchment And one good eye Reading the truth Not theirs Yours Absinthe bitter Not sweet Flavor of reality ©️ The…

    I once was loyal, but no more That feeling walked out through the door These words I speak, I say them true Don’t ever think they care for you Shove you down and stab your back Remind you of the things you lack They care if you but serve them well But if you don’t,…

    Desolate and barren When you search There’s nothing there There comes a point You realize You no longer really care If there was a magic It is buried, it is gone You would think it Rather tragic But you realize You are wrong They tell you See the bright side But when you look There’s…
