quit drinking yesterday

by tattooedbeatmessiah - Libra

it's thursday,
payday,
just cashed my check,
i'm sitting at the bar
a quarter after three,
with a pocketful of money,
with no place to be,
washing the week away
with a few pints of lager,
happy hours starting soon and
the price will go down,
everyone from work is already here,
laughing and joking playing pool
and joker poker, the money
starts flowing,
the shots come around,
one for you and you and you,
and another round behind them,
the owner starts smiling,
he buys a round for the house
and here i am in the middle
of the crowd,
why do i feel all alone?
