escape

Just one more toke,
Just one more shot,
Just one more line,
Just one more high,
To take your mind on a trip,
A euphoric trip,
The kind where roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Where cloud nine is overrated,
The kind where just for a few minutes,
You experience an out of body experience,
An escape,
Your skeletons are breaking down your closet,
One more toke to keep them at bay,
Deal with your shit,
Not today though,
Just one more line,
To run away,
From the inevitable,
To chase away the shakes,
To cope,
Your body is willing but your mind betrays you,
Those skeletons again,
Bang!bang!bang!!,
Just one more shot,
Tomorrow is a new day skeletons,
I need to run,
But you are shackled to my foot,
Like a shadow you stalk me,
Lurking,
Waiting for the moment sober kicks in,
And there you are again,
Bang!bang!bang!!!
Just one more shot,
One more toke,
One more line,
One more high,
An escape.
