Doubt
You rested the pinnacle of your breast
Piercingly, against my chest
Seizing the breath in my lungs
My nostrils failed me
As your fragrance choked each and every opening
Until a second felt like an eon
I remember everything about my moments with you
Your embrace that is freezing and cold
The shadows of your breath
That darkened the iris of my eyes
Until all i can see is nothing
But the thick figure of fear
You whispered how much you've done for me
From the moment i first chose
Between 'this' and 'that'
Until the moment i must chose
Between life and death
And this is now
But the question remains
Would i chose to live
Or would i chose to die
'Cos, if i live, i'm tagged 'logical'
And if i die, i become 'radical'
So, please help me decide
I'm alive and here
Because of you
All thanks to you
But could i have been better
Or even livelier
Now that's a tug within you
I've held unto you
For the length of my two-and-a-half-yard-life
Trying to be logical
But now,
I'm beginning to doubt you, DOUBT
For this is the time for me to be radical
