How often is lust
Mistaken for love
Lost in jeweled eyes
Wanting to seize the day
But too tired to breathe
Acting like a fool
In search of a
Wondrous place
But crashing out
Into disastrous
Situations
Been mincing words
To dilute the bitterness
But it only made it worse
A hard pill to swallow
But I swallowed it whole
And took some more
Drove down the road
Found her between
Pacific coast highway
And Studebaker
But that was the end
Fantastical fantasy
Fatally adjourned
The antidote
For the venom
That had been had
A nuance of words
Solicited illicitly
That which
Should never have been
Had been told
And what unfolded
Was not destiny
But erroneous choices
With unforetold consequences
That made us ashamed
For all that had been lost
