©2011 Out and up
Are you on the level this time?
Am I just a fling waiting on the line?
If I'm just a needed fantasy that's fine
Let me know, please can you tell me so?.
I met you there, it seems eons ago
When I realized myself, began to grow
Your smile eminated, it made me glow
Lighting up my heart in dark dark days.
In some ways I believe you can relate
To feeling unloved, lonely, and crazed
Solitude often leaves us feeling that way
Under the blanket and gasping for air.
In human nature's cruel ways I look for care
And wonder if anyone has a little to spare
Hand on rail, head down, I climb the stair
To the attic I call my mind...such toys I find.
I'm fond of a few, too few I found kind
But only the kind of kindness that binds
Turning till upside down is this 999
I know I can never let that happen again.
In sad amusement I slowly start, I begin
To get comfortable inside this scarred skin
And conclude "Yes , this time I know I'll win
I'll not sacrifice heart for a need, I love me...".
