Empty Bottle Symphony

Friday sparks the countdown, liquid courage calls,
spinning in a crowded room, painted laughter falls.
Bottles clinking rhythm, smiles flashing fast,
secrets spilled like whiskey, careful masks won’t last.

Dancing through denial, chaos is the key,
holding onto strangers tight, lying honestly.
Cups raised to the ceiling, toast to nothing clear,
chasing faded visions, truth we volunteer.

Morning brings reality, heads pound with regret,
coffee brewed from laughter, promises unmet.
Faces blur in daylight, stories left behind,
melodies forgotten, echoes undefined.
