Drunk Girl

NICK

Beautiful, broken, and abandoned.
The second I see her in my bar,
With cover charge stamps plastering her hands,
I know what I have to do.

Take her home,
Get her into bed,
Where I know she’ll be safe.

I do exactly that.
Leaving her keys and my number,
As I lock the door behind me.

She deserves more,
So much more.

ASHLEY

Shattered, vulnerable, and alone,
Trapped in a lifetime of hurt,
Trying to break the cycle.

But he came in,
Saved me,
From myself,
From my circumstances.

Showing me compassion,
And respect.
Proving I am so much more.

More than just a pathetic drunk girl.
