The Roundabout

By Fourknaz

Trust your feelings
Your heart is a vulnerable instrument
The equation is simple
Happiness = Go with it
Stop questioning it
Reciprication more then me?
Is that possible
Yes, with her
I'm scared
new ground
future is all i think about
what will be
what will happen
what will transpire
I know I know
stop it
This is a special feeling
this is a new warmth I feel
this point in time things i'm frightened
she has my best interests in mind
is that possible?
Yes, with her
i spoke with a devil's tounge
disobeying my feelings
making disillusioned paragraphs
saying things that made me uncomfortable
because I am confortable
yet afraid of the comfort
she's a good girl
shedding tears is not me
I sat shaking on the phone
welling up inside me
tell her allready
stop the bullshit
counterfeit garbage your making yourself believe
tell her the truth
marriage, moving in, picket fences,
children's names, family dinners
Rock size?
settle down
easy rasta
easy
think too much and your soul might explode
although this situation is unlike any other
I'm holding back because the usual behavior would actually be
comfortable
used to the give give give give
and used to the stabbing piercing maiming beatings
enough allready
open up your eyes
to the new world
the new step in your life
