Departing the Sky


Your breathless apologies

empty of air as much as sincerity

Pleading eyes and the smell on your words

stinking of endless lies

The sweetest of your words converted to beratements

sugar converted to ethyl

bacteria breaking down the substance of our relationship

just like it does in your favorite drink

The heavens depart from the sky

The weeping from the clouds washing away my impurities

Tears cleansing the rosie sheen that clouded my judgment

I see things so clearly now that the bottle is empty

while you reach for another that is full
