just one night.

i walk down the dark & winded street,
the leaves rustle.
as i step, they crack.
what a long night it's been.
the cool wing embraces my skin,
it feels surreal.
was i really there ?
had you seen, what i've just seen ?
.. you couldn't have .. i couldn't have.

a tug on my hand, i leave.

morning shines,
the day starts anew.
yet the vivid images of last night can't seem to escape my mind.
retracing my steps to this .. place.
where am i, really ?
my head floods with pain.
i feel dizzy.
what happened last night ?

flashing back,
the warmth of my skin,
the sloppy grin on my face.
wild & untamed,
i conquered the night.
or did i ?

i race out of bed,
the mug of coffee crashes on the floor.
seriously, where am i ?
my head throbs, my stomach churns.
clutching my stomach, something doesn't feel quite right.
i look down.
who's shirt is this ?

my body hurls,
my head flung over,
i'm spilling my guts out.
how ? why ?
no answers.
just flashbacks.
just pains, aches, & misery.

i just couldn't say no .. could i ?
