Sour grapes vintage on the vine
Pruning dimples of lost loves texture
Moisture to exist on a relationship
Has festered into bitter pills

Withdrawn from the sting that hurts so
You withdraw from the nest of feelings
Flying on waves of tears
In torments that swirl in revenge

But the restlessness binds you
To deep soul searching
In a quack mire of doubt
As memories storm within you

The love that hates so
Hurt to feels so
Emotions rise into depressions
On roller coasters of emotions

Depressed mindset rises
With rings of desperation
To lower on wrong numbers
That cast you a drift again

Stay away sweet love
I am not worthy of the abuse
You have let me exist on
With no air to breathe from

My space has to fly free
So we can claim each other on our own
Without the shackles that bind
Cutting the threads of our purpose

Your commitment to me
Can not swallow up my existence
In a skeleton that moves at your will
Howling in the pain of obedience

So sweet love you are on your own
To adjust in a champagne sweet enough
To challenge my taste buds
Into an intoxication that flowers

So I wait for both imprisonments to end
Where we can join in a harmony
That dances in the great possibilities
That smiles in hands that share each other

So go away sweet love
I will miss you
