Silly conscious dealings
Trying to control my feelings--
This my only instigation
To fall from dedication.
I need to be known for something
Never praised for nothing;
Has this love of ambition
Sent us into remission?
I never did lose sight of you,
This credit I'm at least due.
Though it seems you've no retention
Of my honesty, love and affection.
Absence makes the heart grow strong,
And sometimes you can wait too long;
But we're going to be okay--
So there's not much else to say.
I'm back to those beginnings
Where I'm so frequently back.
Locked in a day dream
of a closer you--
You being the One At The Time,
The ideal
One on my mind.
This changing to thinking of us falling
Into an arbitrary stream of affairs
That inevitably turns us for the worst.
The worst being Break Up
With little chance of Make Up,
Except the mascara 'round your eyes
That I imagine running down
The way we went down:
Just to be wiped away.
