Cycle That Never Ends

It's a never ending cycle of drama Pain coming and going from day to day Trapped in this world tired, depressed, alone Love covers a multitude of sins But, keep me bare naked to resistance A leaky faucet in the kitchen, a continual drip My life spirit flicker as a lamp low in oil Struggling to carry on, hold it down Falling on my face, depleted of energy A power surge steals my reserves The touch of a soft inviting body Adorned with love and affection is freedom Now that I'm alone like before, young and single It's hard coping when you're middle aged And lonely in a marriage A bone crusher when you can't do anything right Or say something that helpful, commonly misspoken Unable to find common ground among anything living A little slumber, a bite of food, may bring back the zeal
