As I sat at the table
Peeling the flakes off its top layer
Touching the coolness of skin
Feeling the blood rush through body
With a slight tinge of alcohol
The words, flowing
The tears, welling
And my heart, praying

Some people popped by in our lives
Some stopped by
Others stay for awhile
There might even be some who left but still remain in the midst of our minds
But life is not all that bad
There are also those who came
And filled this space in our hearts we never knew was empty

Go with the flow my dear
