Lost but Free
Just me and a map on this little wood boat lost at sea
My view is nothing but the oceans serene beauty
I have no compass to direct me so I know I'm free
Left to wonder endlessly until my eyes get droopy

Thinking what is to come on this journey
I now realize the only one I can rely on is me
This boat is not sturdy and the waves can be very jerky
Teaching me that life has no guarantee

I envy the weather for being so moody
One second so peaceful and clear the next being so dark and whirly
Now understanding why mother nature isn't fluky
There are reasons for everything I believe that now very firmly

Preoccupied Lies
You say one thing but don't follow through
Leaving me alone left to ponder and ask why
Did I do or say something that hurt you
I understand you are busy but I know you have time

My mind wonders is this fate
Is destiny revealing that this relationship is way overdue
Maybe we just need to escape for our own sake
See some place new where we both can share the view

Please I don't want this to be goodbye
We can run faraway and start with a fresh new slate
But for now I wait as you seem to be preoccupied in another lie
****** just look me in the eye and tell me it straight

Why'd He Have to Care
I thought I could get away with a fib
But it only brought weakness
Not just to my mind but to my limbs
If only he could of witnessed

In that moment I was scared
So I figured why not write a script
Why'd he have to care
Protecting myself caused me to feel like a convict

I now have a conflict and am left sleepless
I just didn't want to be compared
Now left feeling helpless in my own tangled mess
This so called fib has caused me to become mentally impaired

— The End —
