they asked me if i was depressed
and i said no
because thats what they wanted to hear
He asked me if I had moved on
and i said yes
because that was what he needed to hear
she asked if i was okay
and i said no
but that wasn't what she chose to hear
and after a while
I cried for help
but no one was there to hear.

The stage is set,
Lines have been learned
Scenes have been rehearsed
Now the audience piles in
They take their seats waiting for the show to begin
Silence falls as the curtain goes up
I stand in the wings waiting for my first line
It's a great show, everything's going fine
The audience reactions come at just the right time
Standing here I think to myself and smile
I don't know the exact reason why
But being in the theater makes me feel so alive
Here is where my heart is
Here is where the magic is
The theater is my home.

sight smile
approach lifts
close tingle
eyes sparkle
yours
fields mesh
ours
hair stands
strands brush
wills fade
lips touch
lost
forms meld
blood flows
tongues search
breath mixed
perspire
wet
we float

I look to the moment when I see you smile
I feel the energy when I sit beside you
I tie my tongue in my mind
the knots like clots
stop my thoughts
impaling me on the sword of desire
the fear of rejection freezing to ice
the lips that await
as you apply appeal
so tender, so moist
their touch will surely thaw
my tongue you will draw
into the warmth
exploding the sensors
adding fuel to our fire
yes! decimate me
send me to shreds
reform me then melt me
that I may ooze forth to blend
within you once again

  It's the
      Why's?
            That Make the
                  Wise Wise
