second thoughts

by john-michalski

yes: I could go on Believing Thinking Feeling That everything is OK, That everything is perfect for once. How i could buy you a pretty diamond ring, Yet have second thoughts about everything. Or maybe I could buy you roses from time to time, Just for you to look at once and then throw them away. How you could say I love you and I would say it back, Yet one of us never fully meant it. How we can both love and grow to hate each-other Like wild animals fighting over dominance You show your teeth, I show you mine. Id rather swim, Then drown in the moments that are left to remember. If I do so happen to drown, Let it be the whiskey that i drown in.
