I am aware that I'm toxic
It was never fair to believe that in life you just give and receive
Spending half a life as the novelty welcome mat on a rural truck stop.
Nobody ever stayed around, they were all on some journey.
A foot gets put down and occasionally people frown
as in you were never supposed to do that
as in you should be comfortable because people still at least say hi
When the greeter gets greeted they feel more or less defeated
Because everything is done the same daily, it's repeated
Crane that neck around, and see the stomps impeding
On all that sense of worth, that basket full of reassurance that was spread like pixie dust
Take all those coming forward with their not so friendly faces
Get off of the floor and go forward, get ready for the races
Stay down or drown in a pool full of that stiffling reality that just cannot be avoided.
Go toxic.

My love, I have been waiting for your touch
How I long to feel you from morning 'til night

Love me gently, embrace my blatancy
Kiss my innocence, hold me so tight


I'll surrender all to you, my love
Please just stay at my sight


Your song, my song, I hear it
From your heart, my precious knight


My knees are shaking, my heart is beating so fast
My lips are waiting, kiss me, baby, it's alright


You said that you love me, prove it to me, my love
Let your skin touch mine, give me what's just right


My heart, my soul, I'll give you my all
Come one, baby, I am yours tonight...
A response to a mature piece from the other site. Just a try. Trying to be "fearless" with this one.
