Strangers, Again

This is dedicated  To this girl Her eyes told a mysterious story that exposed her danger But my sixth sense was overpowered by the hearts need to love a stranger The perfect dime to my ninety which completes me entirely This. . . Girl Was a gift from the universe, filled with distorted energy Which then combined with mine, and I confused with synergy From the start, gave her my hand Invited her to my world,  Then gave her my heart A heart that considered her a good habit Which caused it only to beat in the presence of her love and like a dove I was then pictured as a symbol of peace and flew away in the skies I was peace. We were peace. Our light moving towards cloud nine, but past that to cloud infinity Our future together was clear, close my eyes and I could see it vividly we were like Siamese twins, take us apart and death is a possibility I was here to stay,  my love was here to stay . . .  I thought you were here to stay so you could NOT. GET. RID OF ME... or could you? I closed my eyes and I heard steps And like a ninja, out of my life you crept And this thief... This thief came through the darkness of the night and snatched you Grabbed you up Dazed you Flashed you ''I could do better than him'' through his false aura he screamed Funny thing is, you believed. I was deceived Received with open arms But later on replaced. Thought of as the man of your dreams But later on erased Running from reality, when in reality I had to chase it Love was a crutch to me, but I had to face it You were the lost soul That was seduced by the bandit Now my heart considers you a cigarette In other words a bad habit Granted I don't need you All I need is mental stability Acceptance of reality This notebook And my pen So then... Me and you can just become Strangers, again.
