Three AM

I'm silent and alone tonight as I drown in my drink.  No one notices as everybody is busy with their own businesses.  I'm not complaining though.  I prefer it better that way. 

My mind is, as always, on a whirl.  Mixed thoughts contrast each other and it damn hurts my head.  I'm angry.  I'm brooding.  I'm calm.  I'm blissful.  I'm so screwed up.  Hell, who am I kidding anyway?  Since when did I ever felt completely contented and idyllic?  In my dreams.

Speaking of which, I want to sleep.  I crave for sleep.  No one will notice me sleeping.  It will just be normal, as what they would have thought.  But these confusing ideas in my head don't help a bit for my headache.  Vodka doesn't help either.  How about coffee?  Now there's a thought.  But then again if I'll have some I won't get some rest too as I'm bound to be awake all night long.  And that won't be good.  No, not good at all.  I just might end up killing myself by then.

If I do just that, would anyone be pleased?  Father would be.

Well fuck him to hell.  I, Nishikado Soujirou, don't have to prove to anyone.

As dawn came, I lay in my bed all wide awake, headache gone worse, chanting that same statement in my head like a mantra, knowing it's one full blooded lie.
