youth
there’s a certain immortality to youth
waking up with vodka induced stomach aches next to a boy i shouldn’t have kissed the first time
but definitely should have the second
it occurs to me in this light soaked living room that there a million more mornings like this in my future
that my life stretches out before me in a never ending stream of vices and virtues
breakups and breakdowns
high nights and low times
and none of it will kill me
i will just keep going
this cigarette will not kill me
this 10th drink will not kill me
nothing can
standing here looking at the sunset with nothing but tequila and him in my stomach it occurs to me
that i am unkillable
i just keep rising
