shudder to think.

3 am....
bathing in the glow of the streetlight outisde....

lying next to her was the pill bottle top....
where the actual bottle was, she wasn`t sure....

she felt the rush of chemicals warming her insides....
it was like a mouthful of hot cocoa on a cold winters day....

the light outside blurred ever so slightly as she heard a soft tapping on the back door....
she pushed herself up off of the hard wood floor and floated towards the sound....

she saw her lover standing on the back porch....
they tongue kissed through the kitchen screen....

the metal caused blood and saliva to mix as the particles of half swallowed pills trickled
down her chin....

3 am....
bathing in the glow of the streetlight outside....

they collide.
