One time of many
One life is plenty
Roses with thorns
Antelope with horns
You are beautiful
In ways that are hard to explain
You are the truth
You are proof
Of many things
Of nothing at all
I see you motionless
Freeze framed chiseled face strong body
A mind that can scar
I look you in the eye but can you see me?
Do you believe that I'm real?
I know you are
I want to possess you as unhealthy as that is
Beauty is fleeting but I want to catch it
Wrap it up in a blanket and hold it next to me
Carry it with me where ever I go
All the while not seeing my own beauty
I possess it already
But I want yours
In me on me with me
I want you to proclaim you want me as much as I want you
But I'm sure that wont happen
Sure if it did I wouldn't want it anymore
Would want to move on to the next pretty face
Possession
Recollection
Am I on the wrong track?
How can I be so vain?
How did this happen?
How did life happen?
We're in a maze
Left to figure it out
With the obvious in one hand
And imaginary what ifs on the other
Where do you lie?
Where do I lie?
Am I the one being fooled?
All dressed up with nothing to do
These days of my life pass one by one
I'm going nowhere
Getting nowhere
Finding nothing
But my own unknown eating away at me
