She Leans On The Bottle Tonight

on
Drunk woman

She leans on the bottle tonight

Asking for a friend

She has forgotten the feeling of another

Tears roll down her face

No one comes to help her pain

She takes a drink

And then another

Soon the world has lost its color

She leans on the bottle tonight

No friend in sight

Tear-stained

Her face is now a mirror

Reflecting the hurt

The disdain

She leans on the bottle tonight

Intoxicated with a nightmare

Too far gone to remember what dreams are

Tears seem to know no end

Tonight, she leans on the bottle

Her only friend
