Wee Hour Thoughts On a Full Bladder

there are places i will never see
there are places i would like to be
there are attractions that i would like to view
then there is the main attraction, which is you

i remember sleeping under the noise
i remember waking up with mosquito bites and ticks on my genitals
i remember snot and tears turning to ice on my face
i remember laying my head against your heart, the warmest of any place

confusion left me at a standstill while still moving
confusion righted me with two left feet while still grooving
confusion created mirages in the dry desert of life
confusion lead me to you, the foundation that helped overcome all struggle and strife
