Craziness

Upon laying eyes on your nakedness
It comes to mind the feeling of insecurity
Let alone having head in the clouds

Every moment I reckon to be with you
To be the finest living soul
Whom you could ever depend on

But I’ve heard how much you love her
That even her death does not stop you
From being devoted and amorous to her

It cuts me deep all the more so
Should I beg to get your attention?
All hail the craziness but that won’t stop me

After all this time, I remain firm
Even if I know you’re six feet under
I keep up on loving you…
