Strong Drinks and Heavy Hearts

Strong Drinks and Heavy Hearts

Tonight
Before the
Lights come
On
And last
Call is
Yelled

Slow dance
Under the
Dim lights
Of the
Night

And while
The beer
Shots
Drinks
Had
It's all
Money
Well spent

Hands held
While
Keeping track
Of the others'
Footsteps
Or
Heartbeats

And for once
Older
Or
Caught
In a moment
Of something
Bigger

Bigger than
Two hands
Holding
Two hearts
Beating
Two people
Standing

And as the
Lights
Finally
Turn on
Fate
Or hope is
Found

All
Realized
Standing
In front
Of me
