Sitting By The Edge

I'll be sitting by edge, 
smiling, 
and never wish I stuck by
your side, 
not today, not tomorrow 
but someday, 
for now, I'll keep in touch 
and take note of your tone 
because I am idle like that 
there is no better way to waste time 
than to make you feel 
as if I am eternally and hopelessly 
infatuated by by 
as if there is no other being 
on earth that would deserve this 
that would love better

One Drink Tonight

I will have a drink tonight 
and toast to the madness 
abundant in every nerve 
inside me 
I'll have a drink tonight 
that'll remind me I am alive 
I'll have a drink 
to take a brief break from all 
the hassle that abounds 
I'll have a guilt free drink 
just one drink
