my virtual valentine
I’ve been working on my buzz
ever since I got off medicine
be it session brown ale
or good old-fashioned sipping whiskey
I used to have this voice
but now all I have is electronic means
jotting down my lost thoughts
eventually cast into cyberspace
told myself I won’t cry no more
especially now that my beating heart
(seemingly stronger than ever)
belongs to someone else
october two thousand eighteen
