So here you go: A worthless tribute to your way with words. -- Your light guides me towards the waves, the deep oceans with social currents; You are as easily capable of pulling me towards the dangers that unfortunately I do not recognize as anything but normal in life. I didn't recognize the lasting effect your touch would have on me, the way that your words would fill my lungs up with more water than any current could ever drown me in. I don't need that. I can feel the blood rushing to my head at the sound Of Relief. --- You're a special drug, though I'm beyond addicted. Invincible mindsets clash with all the other slight feelings of what is right, and what is wrong. Through all the chaos, I chose to disregard your heat. You are so unnecessary. You are n o n e x i s t e n t. --- You're the chemical that poisons me So. Perfectly. Stricken numb, I've opened up to my real self- It's confusing, But I like it like that. - I hate it like that. --- I guess in this case it's better off to be incomplete, and find myself driving on perfectly imperfect roads. And guess what. I'm cruising through it. I no longer feel drowned in the stress, anxiety, and confusion that my life with you has generously brought. You've taught me how to swim. Thanks. I appreciate you showing me how to survive in a pathetic world, your pathetic world, of mindless actions. It has come in handy. Dearest, you're not the only one. Don't flatter yourself.

For You
So here you go: A worthless tribute to your way with words. -- Your light guides me towards the waves, the deep oceans with social currents; You are as easily capable of pulling me towards the dangers that unfortunately I do not recognize as anything but normal in life. I didn't recognize the lasting effect your touch would have on me, the way that your words would fill my lungs up with more water than any current could ever drown me in. I don't need that.
