Sometimes i wonder...
If the things i want are things i need
If these glasses really help me to see
If there was ever a need for a king and a queen
What its gonna take for my insides to beam
Most days I ask...
Am I considering all sides of the situation?
Am i the Frankenstein of this creation?
Could this be blamed on my medication?
Why am i filled with such frustration?
But typically I'm just left feeling...
Like the push and pull is uneven
Like someone is always leaving
Like its too broken to recieve again
Like theres gotta be something I can believe in.

Thrills and dismay
A classic play
Although the stars unwilling
To play their parts
Back from the start
They sang off different pages
While it may seem
They both so keen
The misery resided
And split them up
What nasty luck
A lore so sad to see

We fell apart
A lasting scar
It cannot be undone
You made your choice
Ignored my voice
Did you think that I had fun?
Im sure you see
Now that she leaves
Exactly how it feels
Filled with regret
A losing bet
Youve lost all your apeal

Its amazing the changes that happen
When you find in another new passion
Which leads you to breakthrough old blocks
The serene satisfaction can cause shocks
Reverberating through your body
Fixing ideas that were just plain shoddy
Developed from fear of being alone
Thoughts of romance dating back to Köln
But new life springs from inside me
Freedom and independence feeling likely
Another one bites the dust, one might say
But I left them in the dust that day
Moving on is such a vague process
People acting like its some contest
But I know im in it for recovery
Its all about my own rediscovery
Its easier to find yourself
when you stop looking somewhere else
Most platitudes can be hard to apply
Not me, ready to use these words to fly

I don't want kids
But sometimes I fantasize about being a parent...
So I could treat my child in ways my mother never could.
But what I think I really want
Is to go back
And parent myself

She's not forcing anything on anyone.
You either value her when she's here,
Or miss her when she's gone.

And if you think loving her is hard,
Try forgetting her.
Tetra Hachiko May 2022
What do I think we are
Did I expect to see stars
Spining around both our heads
Forgetting the path that I fled
It all sounds so silly to me
Going back to such lived misery
How can I entertain my delight
At the thought of being under your spotlight
It all felt so decided, quite final
Like our last song on a vinyl
An album played ad nauseam
Swimming circles in stagnum
But a tale as old as time
The whimsy to rewind
In my attempt to create closure
I found the itch to flip our record over.
