Deranged Love

You come to me in fits and starts

Partly holding your golden hair

Then you back off like an engine torn apart

 

Bowing out because I wont back down

To your posse conditions

And the jealousy of your lover

 

We exchanged words called devotion

Love danging by the throat

And marched along in tongue tension

 

Still you tight rope your heart

Unable to make a decision, you hold apart

 

But all is forever laid bare

To live through love without a care
