Businessman

you continue to
just lie there
and dream
or something 
lay
le 
losing you
was so easy
when faced
with the truth 
of how
perfect it is
alone 
 
when seeking perfection
I have learned never
to underestimate
my own self destructive
tendency to fail 
at critical times
and I leave work realizing 
I am fighting 
the devil.
