#nodding
I should have backed out when instinct told me to run; run far, run now. When you closed eyes a little too long for a healthy man; I know that nod only too well. When the blame game you play spins to everyone but yourself I should have backed out. I should have backed out. Now you Tangled my Heart strings Now you Mangled My mind When you surprised me with Outrage over my feelings On being an afterthought Over your : addictions Over your: obsessions Over : anything that could come before me When you surprised me with A Luke warm return I should have backed out. I should have backed out. The door. So now I’ll go. Run Run far Run now..

The Nod
A waivering head With memories coursing though every finger A grip on sleep once lost Is held directly in hand Though it cannot hold a candle to the perfect dark But to pay the waking watchman's toll Over and over again Is no good for a weary traveler stead Instead it's said, once lost in dreams Such a peaceful hopeful magnificence May be never found again Let alone remembered upon awaking
