Sabotaging your dreams.
Doubting all your successes.
Failing to plan ahead.
Losing control of emotions.
Letting yourself be manipulated.
Toxic behaviour ignored.
Making bad decisions.
Wanting the final end.
Turning away from the light.
Jumping into the abyss.
Why, why, why?
Accepting failure as the norm.
Lifting into the air.
The solar system expands before us.
Driving the engines forward
As the machines turn the rods.
Crews stepping sideways
While the officers run the bridges.
Orders followed.
Or else the black hole leaves a gap
in our memories
where no one else survives.
I know I put it in a safe place
Where I could find it
When I needed it!
Except now,
I can’t remember
Where I put it.
You see them
After a time apart.
It is so seamless
How you fall in to conversation.
Joy fills your heart.
Saying goodbye is bittersweet
Because you do not want to leave.
Yet you know the pleasure
You will receive
When the next time you visit them.
Inside the flation
Is famation
and In that is
a record of carceration.
Who is in the formation of the In?
An interesting term
when applied to antibiotics.
It is true.
Essentially,
They discover the infection.
Then destroy it.
Helping you to recover from the wound.
So hand me my bottle of disinfectant pills.
The only way to get rid of temptation
is to give in to it.
Except that some temptations
are more dangerous than others.
So try as I might
the bag of chips is slowly dwindling.
Corrosive.
Sore.
Ugly.
Sickness unbound.
If no one treats it soon enough, it will grow.
It Spreads and debilitates the system.
Sometimes it can be cured.
Other times…
It is fatal.
The rule is over.
Reigning for a long time.
Yet, amidst the celebrations
No one looked at the ground
She trod upon.
She was just a woman
and now her time has come.
Fictional or real
Her impact will live on.
The game shows the work involved
In running a kingdom.
Now the game has ended
And I mourn my characters last breath.
Life is different
when I am with him.
Things are happier.
More joy is found.
Chores no longer seem tiring.
But life is not fair
and he can only visit.
And I cannot stay with him.
