the tree of life
the seed of spice
of where we hung
the birds then sung
beneath our legs
the water begs
come dive in
all tinged with sin
so i took a chance
got water all on my pants
but whom i sat with
went a little bat ****
and was not my friend
until the very end
he was the safe road
an unwilling toad
so i cut the ties
and went on with my life
i tried new things
met new people
and found myself
away from the chains
of a terrible
controlling
relationship
and now
i am

happy

fun

friendly

and

free

without him
