SUGGESTION

I invite you to celebrate

this moment of oblivion

and intoxication.

I poisoned myself,

dreaming about those

invisible things I still need

when I am half awake

or maybe half dead.

We can drink

in my bed or maybe

we can sit on the sink

and observe how pathetic

I am now.

(can't even think)

We can undress our metaphors

and the day as we spit

the words we could never say.

Maybe we can take our ridiculous

mask too and for three seconds

we could stop rehearsing

and say "I love you".

The sky is so distant

from me as I savour this glass

of defeat, caressing nothingness,

watching another accident,

trying my best to be sweet.

I invite you to suffer with me

as I dive in my ocean of pure despair,

cursing fate again while I err.

But you can't see me falling

from my cherished abyss.

But you can't  even give me

 a wet kiss.

So

Let's drink for your health

and forget all the rest

while time stains my heart.
