The fruit never tasted sweeter then it did on that fateful day as I picked it from its stubborn vine... the vine of everything forbidden I'll never again feel quite like I did You know, always looking but failing to find? My search did keep my heart beating though... but through it all, I was just a slave to the grind Jonesin' it when the next 'best' came along I needed it 'now', just kept reachin' on out I'd never forgive myself if I didn't... after all, I was a slave to the grind My face? Just a reflection in the mirror I close my eyes but still, it won't go away I can't shake this feeling inside... being no more than a slave to the grind "Give it up, just let it go... If it were only that easy There's just no escaping the reality... I'm no more than a slave to the grind Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here... |

Brings to mind grinding up coffee beans. In that regard I'm a slave to that particular grind. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

Thanks for your comment Lori Rhoden, but I feel I 'heard' you first...when your car's 'GPS' was locked into the grocery or Walmart! Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here... |

Thanks JerryPat2! I too, like my coffee rituals. Sometimes though, when I'm feeling lazy, I shamelessly grab the jar of instant! Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here... |
