The smell of pungent whiskey
Seeing the world in a lens of disgust
The neverending cycle of death
The tell-tale of a life once lived
The shade of black dulling my breathing patterns
Lighting the cigarette was polluting every inch of my body
Until I finally rotted
Just as the world eventually will.
~End

- Comment from author about the poem: This poem came about as I was thinking about how I want my writing to be perceived. I have my own meaning behind every poem, but I want the reader to take their own meaning from it. Find their own purpose behind the poem. I am an interpretive writer, and I don't expect that to change. This poem specifically was made as I was thinking about 5 random words, and it morphed into a story. I hope you all enjoy this work of mine.

hopeless and bleak, the message of 'it can't get any worse than that' is coming through loud and clear.
Hopeless and bleak, we are forever lost in a sea of sorrows.
