Chase

Do you chase a feeling 
or try to erase it?
I spend a lot of time captivated 
by the little tunes that are on 
constant replay in my head
Do I dare face it?

These voices humor me
therefore I sucked them up 
and now they adorn me like jewelry
my heart owns a cell phone
and texts my mind funny little jokes
only to me their more like ironic little pokes

If the one in question 
sets your soul on fire 
would you want to escape
from your hearts damnation?

probably not....
