Forget Me Drug – June 1, 2020

I’m up, again And here go my thoughts Slipstreaming along I’d love to share them with you But we’ve been here before And for some reason Attempt after attempt I still cannot get the words To come out right I love you But there’s that part of... You mean well But when I listen Your … Continue reading Forget Me Drug – June 1, 2020

Scared of the fury That lies tucked in Escaping Stale juices I teeter and totter Never aware Bound to pounce Leaking and merging Into limbo Passing On and on and on Feverishly Panting The covers tossed Across the room Landing Scattered and Messy But Still there Under-lying-ly knowing You have to Make the bed
