Catch the eyes of my mind
press rewind to the times
When I had fallen
and was deeply entwined
with the heart of a man
and I still fail to understand
when our bonds became weak
and harsh tongues began to speak
dirty secrets began to leak
and he began to seek
for another
to heal his heart
and in his quest we had to part
and I was left broken
totin’
my heart in a sling
randomly finding the nearest fling
attracted to the bandaid he’d bring
but bandaids were no help on those lacerations
143 stitches to build up my concentration
on that happiness
independence
contenment
with me
to be
the beat at something
anything
to avoid more than just my demise
to be so happy that I'm high
and you could see it in my eyes….
