Three of Cups

Today's mood is brought to you by Tarot

The cards shuffled and placed on the table

The hand that was dealt

Straight from the stars

My trifecta of vices

My Three of Cups

Which will today's cure be

Will it be the Weed, Wine or Whiskey

My threesome of weakness

I can't hide the truth

I'm addicted to you

My 100 proof

Love is my favorite drug

These are band-aids for pain

For these I could easily quit

If withdrawal didn't hurt so much

Which will I choose from my three of cups?

A one hit wonder playing on my phone

I sit quietly, lost and alone

Replaying memories of a beautiful day

Remembering a time

I didn't have to choose

I had my three of cups when I had you

"Majestic purple mountains glistening to the left of me

  The blue in the sky reminds me of your eyes

Surrounded by snow that contradicted the sunlight

The heat of the sun reminds of your touch

Ocean green waves rippling on the right"

You left me defenseless in this lonely fight

Which vice shall I choose tonight

My choice will be

I will pick all three

Instead of you

I light one up and breathe you in

Like the smell of your love on my skin

Drifting through the air

Not longing for her

I feel the high in my head

As I exhale and release

You are finally here with me

"The one who started a fire in your soul

Her body left you wanting and cold

While drinking the blood from your veins

Promises whispered against your lips

Nothing left but a grape juice stain"

The memory brings us here

A turn in the story

A plot with a twist

I light up another

Here's where it hits

I am

Your cup number one

I am the weed

I got you addicted

To only a dream

I am

Your cup number two

I am the wine

A buzz you never knew

I am the one you didn't choose

I am

Your cup number three

The memory of our touch

Smooth like the whiskey

I am the fire burning you up

I will always choose you

My Three of Cups

Again, and again

I will love you forever
