One shot
All it takes is one shot to get hooked
One shot to get lost
In the forest of demons
Lose yourself here and you won’t be found
Until it’s too late and you’re out of time
To waste away and linger in the past
With the ghosts of your troubles
And the beasts of your problems
They’ll eat you alive
If you hold them inside
Let your feelings go
Let them out
Cry, scream, race away
Don’t hide behind a fascade
Let your feelings show through your eyes
And your pain will be less
As the years go by.
In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.
Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
