I laid my body to rest
before my mind was ready
and so it wandered,
you wandered to my door

My mind put temptation as a test
my body fought
you arrived unannounced and distraught

I wrapped myself around you
like a friend would
I laid you down and allowed you to cry
like a friend should
you exhausted yourself
and fell asleep
and I began to think
which transformed to a weep

The thin line between attraction and satisfaction
we will forever fight
the lucrative way
you go in and out
until we arrive at the day
forever parting ways

I open my eyes, I haven't slept
the light outside pierces my skin
the glimmering tracks, I have wept

the subtle fantasy
surviving so far
down a purposefully set road
I dare not walk
I dare not talk
I know how I unravel
if I were to walk upon such loose gravel
