I am terrorized by my mind Day and night Images of longing lust Fill me up until I runneth over With desire Insatiable want A night with a woman That I saw through the screen Desirable, impeccable beauty Forbidden fruit hanging From the limb of a tree Driving me mad With turbulent thoughts Withdrawn from societies eyes In a room by myself What if I could be with her? Would I be happy then? Only an imagined scenario That runs wild at night With unrequited thoughts Misery loves company And I’ve been loving myself For far too long Temptress incapable of love It would only be the same On the other side Nothing is greener Just shades of gray While screaming “Don’t know why I came here” As if I never meant to stay

Screen Dream
I am terrorized by my mind Day and night Images of longing lust Fill me up until I runneth over With desire Insatiable want A night with a woman That I saw through the screen Desirable, impeccable beauty Forbidden fruit hanging From the limb of a tree Driving me mad With turbulent thoughts Withdrawn from societies eyes In a room by myself What if I could be with her? Would I be happy then? Only an imagined scenario That runs wild at night With unrequited thoughts Misery loves company And I’ve been loving myself For far too long Temptress incapable of love It would only be the same On the other side Nothing is greener Just shades of gray While screaming “Don’t know why I came here” As if I never meant to stay
