Untitled

My head is laying breathlessly and all…lost it all… On the cold, cobble-stoned floor…or was it a wall? You had everything under control, you were on the ball Until you made a mighty great, disappointing fall I stood tall before I was in appall You didn’t notice my missed call Left an unanswered, alone seagull But, no, I won’t lose my cool…cool… King of many misunderstood towns with a strong grip Of some smiles and frustration frowns I wish I was the oddly cool shades and hues, even browns You and I had a toxic, yet an intoxicating relationship Underestimated to the max… The eerie past is like unpaid tax You keep telling me to relax... Your words, a weapon…or an ax Um, what is your main gain? My giving-in-to-you grain? Trust takes time to develop I don’t desire to simply give up, Oh, of course, that's what's up! Absurd… Found you in the abyssal alley way, You quitter-winning queen of qualms You put sane to shame, like me, today Reducing me to senseless, sweaty palms Awkward… You already knew, I sure knew you knew The heartless damage that you would do Don’t try to deny it or push it aside as usual Honey, know this, I won’t be played as the fool Wise in my youth, But lost like you I’m a loose tooth… Got to let go too
