Leaving the Flow Constanza
I do my best to go with the flow
Yet, I was never meant to be here
Drinking empty words like rancid beer
You sure enjoy putting on a show
Sincerity important to you
Faking it until it seems so true
Older and wiser, there are things I know
Still clinging to how I want things to be
In the end it is all up to me
It's hard to leave but it's time to go
Deep in my heart I know you're not a friend
Enough is enough I cannot pretend
I did my best to go with the flow
You sure enjoyed putting on a show
Older and wiser there are things I know
It was hard to leave but it was time to go
Inspired to write this poem after reading Connie Marcum Wong's Constanza.
