Drunken Religion:
On the off chance the inspiration in me
Is genuine and not a result of the chemical mix within me
I present myself to the universe whole
And request forgiveness for the sin that breeds beauty within me when I can’t feel my soul
My inhibitions turn up dead
Life is crazy and I can’t decide whether God only exists in my head
False bravado is the solution when
Cheap vodka is my only friend
The love of my life passed me by tonight
In the dark in the wee hours of graduation night
At first I wasn’t sure it was her and she wasn’t sure it was him
Then we locked eyes and certainty became certain again
We will probably never see each other again
But for a moment that was the most beautiful moment of my life
In another universe I am certain that she is my wife
I’ll forget about it all before the morning
But maybe life is worth a shot and moments like this are the greatest glory
It’s time I bid you a fair night
But I hope you find God whether you find him in the dark or in the light.
A poem my drunken psyche demanded I share on this website.
