It's funny the pull one person can have.
The way they can make the world right-
bring flight to your very soul-
Only to rip a hole through you
in the very next breath.
I don't get it.
This whirlwind, this tornado of emotional distrust.
How did you gain such power over me?
I will gladly stand her to be showered by
your kisses and professions of affection
but all it takes is a split second of self-doubt
and I'm left wondering...
Are you better off without me?
There are others, you know...
Much prettier, shinier baubles out there,
just waiting to be picked up and admired.
I'm flawed, filled to the brim with troubles,
not wrapped in nearly such a neat package.
Funny, it is, the way this ferris wheel works.
Just when I think I've found my comfort space,
my safe place,
...whoosh...
there is goes, oh so quickly,
blinked away much too rapidly.
How does one person gather that much strength
over my very own essence?
Funny the way that works.
