Drinking alone.

 

I looked,

one eye closed,

in my bottle of wine.

Inside there was other eye, darker than mine.

I realized that is was my own eye in the reflection of the crimson liquid,

but i got scared for a second.

That other eye

there was like

a real reflection

of my soul.

Eyes are the windows of the soul,

they say.

But through the reflection in the wine i could see deeper into that window.

Darkness.

Bloody darkness.

I saw despair.

I saw lust and madness.

Fuck you 

and your attachment to lust and madness.

They’re not pretty.

I felt that if i stare any longer a bloody hand from the depths of hell would steal my eyeball.

I’ll drink this bloody hell in a bottle now, before it drinks my bloody eye.
