I'm a little surprised It took til now to realize That I'm a little more than a Little attracted to crazy. Maybe crazy isn't the right word That spark of divine madness- The muse incarnate. Sometimes they look very similar And it takes months to figure out the difference, In your case I think I just called it close enough. Crazy beats boring, I suppose. It overcomplicates things, that's for sure. I don't know what love is any more Because I've now discovered that one day you can be in love And the next day find yourself the cuckolded brunt of a very brutal existential joke. At any rate, that drug-fueled madness we shared, trying to fix each other so desperately, Trying to feel something so impetuously, Whether that was intimacy or just validation, Collapsed. Go figure. Madness at its finest, And it left chaos in its wake. For me at least. You seemed alright. And I use the word "alright" very loosely there.
