Everyone is stuck to someone else's face

oops

I’m standing outside
On a curb
On the corner of ninth and third
I’m frustrated
I’m spent
I try and keep it inside
The street light flickers
The lamppost
With its arms crossed
I lean on a storefront
Graffiti stricken
The metal shakes from my weight, back then forth
I am waiting
For nothing in particular
Something hopefully to happen
If I gave in
I would light a heavy smoke
If it were legal, I would take a hearty toke
The nightlife
In full swing
The bars crowded to the brim
The avenue is alive
The vibe
Is pumped in the air
In the beer and the liquor
In the streets
The rich biatch hugs the beggar
The momentum switch
Is clearly felt
Swept up in the pace
The night party
Sets off
Everyone is stuck to someone else's face
Sucking, suckling
A miniature red straw to mix
Drunken pleasures
Never a night, not to remember
At the peak
At this young age
Except for me tonight
As I sit
And wonder what is written on the next page

Awww jyss...what a terribly lonesome write!!! You really captured the mood of despair and longing. Well done, and I love the vibrant storytelling in this piece. I could really picture it all. I hope things get brighter for you soon my friend...
