why am I smoking and drinking?

Demar Desu

because there are times

where even love and wisdom 

…beautiful things hurt…

    Love is a razor and as for wisdom what you don't know can't hurt you. Well written Demar

    I used to think the same thing...then DUI. Now, cannabis and soil! 😗💨 I was on the wrong meds, it turned out! 🤷‍♀️😅 My faux pas aside...Demar, this is beautifully restrained. You trust a handful of words to carry a much larger truth, and they do. That closing thought stays with me because it's honest without trying to resolve the hurt. I've been right there, my friend. Wonderful write. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
