Inherited Gene
Inherited Gene
I Have seen the nature
Of the look
That is in your eyes
How you aren’t aware
Of your unfortunate demise
Hiding behind
The door of untruths
While it waits, hanging
at it’s hinges
Your life is in peril
Perhaps it’s time
To burn those bridges
For I have seen this
All before
The addiction lies in waiting
Ready to overtake your soul
Leaving you in a heap
As it tosses you to the floor
The chances you took
The road that you take
Leaves behind
The love you forsake
In an effort to start anew
You made a lateral move
Perhaps, that was not the right
Thing to do
