No Longer At Peace In My Comfort Zone
Couldn't on the dame I love put the blame
Although on me the sleazy situation poured shame
Making me feel small
Although it wasn't a downfall
So many times I nurtured a regret
That someone let out my secret
When I wasn't ready
Making my heart feel heavy
With a burden of heartbreak
To escort a fatal mistake
I invited in a haste
It's all such a waste bereft of class and taste
With no positive outcome in sight
Cowardly wisdom in hindsight
Ain't no consolation
To the unfortunate infatuation
Into which headlong I fell
As though under the hex of a spell
That plunged me into a fix
Seemingly influenced by a jinx
By the name of a charm
Which had robbed me of my calm
My world hitherto knew
The sordid episode although so new
Left me gasping for breath wondering
If there ain't no superior rendering
The scenario then required
Before from my bosom it retired
To hunt a fresh target
As the misfortune my person did forget
To leave me alone in my every bone
At long last in peace in my comfort zone.
