Whiskey kisses

Leonard Cohen song and some words.

Whiskey kisses

Once you told me,

I love you, I need you.

Now the blessed words had turned so damn dirty.

I told you,

I love you still,

but now our love is a open wound.

Now I need the iodine to heal the places that once felt so good.

You laughed at my words and you told me.

We decide how we die, we decide how we live.

Now we have whiskey kisses,

morning coffee and morning cigarettes.

Maybe we are too old to care,

maybe misery love company,

I do love you still.

My wife make me crazy and I remember the country song. "I should of kept her, been cheaper." I listen and I know. The grass may look greener but sometime we learn. Left a calm lake for a storm. Thank you Jacob for reading and the comment. I do appreciate.

I love listening to music as I sit down to write, because it opens your mind to a n enormous world of imagination an inspiration.
