Tab

Your name's been on the tip of my tongue for so long,

and like an acid tab, I know it's wrong

but I can't help but feel strong.

You make me feel like I belong.

Revolving Doors

Stuck between revolving doors,

I am waiting for whoever's next

to push me through my own flaws

and find myself within her paws.

Stuck between revolving doors,

I am resenting the last

for turning walks into wars

and leaving me with these sores.

Stuck between revolving doors,

I am waiting for whoever's next

to push me through my own flaws

and find myself within her paws.

Force-Feed

Fools force-feed

to facilitate their greed.

You will find the fuel in food

when driven by need.

Revisit/Reinvent

Life continually throws up the same few scenes

masked by modifications and slight revisions.

An opportunity for us to change what has been

but repeating steps with clockwork precision.

The fates rarely throw up dramatic changes

but subtle differences sneak with the seasons,

and you may repeat the same exchanges

but initiate them for different reasons.

Given the chance, would you revisit or reinvent

in that central moment of your life's spherical plot?

If you could direct the time you had spent

would you change it and risk losing what you've got?

One Track

Senseless senses outweigh prior pretenses,

rationality and reason are lost.

All thought has turned to the filth you have earned

with little concern for tomorrow's cost.

OD

Down the drain, up my nose.

Push me over, hold me close.

You are my thorn, you are my rose;

you are my cure, my overdose.
