Bed of Rambles
BED OF RAMBLES
Nothing is certain
Within the board of your game
Everything is fluid
Apt to change
Actors as well as Scenarios
Motivations and words
Consequences for paths I have chose
Collecting the weeds
My complacency grew
As my complaints are kept unheard
The gardener
Grim reaper
Follows the anxious sewer
Costly co-dependence on the unloved few
I can’t have anyone
Because I cannot have you
If I remain denied
I swear your love will leave a thirst
None will be satisfied
My shadow will cast all your conquests
Looking over shoulders scared
Informed they jettison Terrified
I love you
Why must you die?
The one possession I refuse to share.
