Laissez-Faire Darling Beware

These were the times when I've  Sat around 
Thinking about 
I've thought it through 
Thought  it  out.

And in every  single way
Every simple little 
Solitary ORCHID  filled day

I commend myself just because 
I have let your
Heart hold me up.
I can  tell you now

Baby it was my crutch
When I was falling down
Stripped  Of my composure 
I was one pitiful  tear stricken SOLDIER.

Now, it's just as though 
I was clutching  YESTERDAY.
Memories so  tenderly placed
They won't let me be 

LAISSEZ-FAIRE BABY BABY
I will  only trust my words to you.
Do you care about me?
Do you feel  when I bleed?

Do you feel the Cold breeze 
With icicles on its wings
Only HEAVEN KNOWS  I 
Suppose 
The KINDLED fire of
My SOUL  My heart  composed.

A silent love AFFAIR 
Take me there
Laissez-FAIRE
Darling beware
