“One of a Twenty-Something’s Nights (short)”


They talked till the moon outside retired—
Two lovers.
Cocaine and booze kept them wired—
A mirror on the table,
Cut straws and plenty of empty beer bottles there as well.
Responsibilities fell—
Work in the morning, all that.
They were in love and all fucked up…
And all they knew was the moment.
