passion within itself can be a strong and undeniable
aphrodisiac
it can bring even the most inferior of men up to snuff
and point out to the self confident what it is they
inapparently lack
damn its good to be back on the page
thoughts for success are often so difficult to gage
war with myself is not something I care to whisper
about or wage
especially now, as I , adding many a quicker month
to my current age
I can't seem to keep up without losing something of
myself even something so unimportant in the process
even the sight of wavy blond hair in sun light
churns my emotions in a hot cauldron of distress
but this is the usual me
I have to live with it for it's my mood
when he spoke to me the other day in the park
to the roof of my mouth my tongue was glued
my eyes were momentarily clouded with previously
unsettled lust
its too bad I made such a devastating mistake and
my heart I so lovingly gave to him in absolute trust
now, you're just a dusty but sweet memory for this
lonely poet to be inspired by
so be kind and don't stop and talk to me like we
were only old friends
instead, just throw up a hand as a way of saying Hi!
leave our mutual past where it should always be
in the past where you left it long ago
along with me
I'm not in love with you now but I was once
it's hard to hoodwink a hood
but its easy to deceive a love struck dunce
just one more thing before I walk away with only
these sad tears in my eyes
thank you for those two wonderfully glorious months
don't bother to try to make up for all your harmless
little white lies
you don't owe me anything anymore
not since the day you broke all the ties
now as I watch you make your choice
as I take a single breath you slowly walk away
and a very small clenched hurting part of me
lets go and equally dies
this is the end of all our PREVIOUS GOODBYES!!!
