I am trapped in a three ring circus
And the doors are all shut tight
Up and down are in the middle
With no right or wrong insight

The animals are restless
No food to feed their souls
I have bought a ticket to disaster
With the engines on overload

Once a calm and pure love
Engulfed my loving heart
And then came another
That tore this love apart

It hit before I knew it
I had no time to breathe
It was wrong, to step in to it
But I could not bare to leave

In time there came moment
With both loves I could share
A love so everlasting
It was like heaven being there

As feelings were surrounded
With love and hurt and grief
I stood there astounded
Looking in to see

I knew then I was wrong love
But from the loves
I could not choose
It was I alone out here
It was I, who would loose

Me,, me,, me,, rang loud and clear
I could not separate it from my mind
Is there a back door out of here
No answers came with time

So I'm stuck here in the middle
With out a door on either side
I wish that I was little
So I could run away and hide.

There was a hint of some animal lust here. But, yeah...it's part of love. Nicely done.
