She’s like pulling teeth, you’re like my Novocaine.
Take two, twice a day to numb the pain.
I’m pro-Cain, because I’m just not Abel.
No one’s my keeper, I’m barely stable.
There’s rocks in my brain, cause obviously I’m insane.
Thinking it wouldn’t be the same and yet I’m not even the main
Attraction to the attention, barely a sideshow entertained
Skip the ad, move over to the main feature
Just simply an audience member in the theater
Watching, waiting. Listening, learning.
On the who, what, when, why, where and how
To simply try to be engaging.
Look out, only have the attention now
And maybe it’s just for a minute.
That’s a whole sixty seconds, aren’t I fortunate?
Or unfortunate. Maybe or a definite.
I’m as confused as you.
On the fly, changing rhyme schemes
But can’t change the mean to the right scene
It’s a bit obscene that I must lean on a bar that can’t be seen.
Maybe Im just finding an excuse to hold on
For dear life, in a ship that’s sinking.
Capsizing, drowning.
I’ll be the Jack to a wilting Rose.
Knowing the answer to the last petal.
Getting through the days knowing really shows my mettle.
But a medal of participation is all I’d get.
Floating aimlessly albeit selfishly.
A wave puts my mind at ease.
Looking far well beyond the horizon, I smile.
Thanks for the breeze.
