Too Late

Some days it feels like bliss, Some days we want to quit, and give up then end this s***, I'm not instant void-filler for you to pretend with or someone just to call when you've been dropped from your friend's list, I'm in this, for better or worse, usually worse than better or whichever one comes first, 'cause in relationships, we tend to become complacent, it's not an uncommon problem for two people to be faced with, as long as you're both strong enough to hold and embrace it, but you erased it, replaced it, and now it's too late

this is sure bluesy. I really like it. It could be entered in one of those contests of Robert L, who has us respond to blues songs in his recent contests!

Thank you, Andrea. It's always a pleasure and honor when you comment on my poetry. Entering it into Robert's contest is a great idea, but I'm not sure it fits the criteria, being that it wasn't actually inspired by Joe Bonamassa lyrics. Although, I must say, it certainly fits in with the theme of "Pretending" and "SWLBR".
