The Stranger I'm Bound To

By RaZoRbLaDe RaGdoLL

This union is a sham.
I thought we could make it
but I don't know if I can continue to fake it,
I simply can't shake it

This isn't a marriage,
No horse and carriage
No prince charming to ride away into the sunset with.

How did we end up like this
All this chaos started with our first kiss
Why did you pretend to commit to us
When all you CAN commit to is a pack of smokes and some bud.

You've turned me into this nag
When I've always been more like the man
The chick you could chill with
The one you could go home with

Now it seems you can't get away fast enough
No amount of pain I convey seems to return you to US
 
What did our vows mean?
Why did you give me this ring?
I didn't ask you to marry me
Now your acting like you have to carry me
I'm not a burden or an accessory
Your suppose to want to lay down with me
Instead I go to bed alone ...
Unless I get lucky and your stoned
Passed out cold next to me
It's the only time I can get you near me
We started out as friends
When will this shit end?
How come I can't come with you
Is there something new that your into??
I find it hard to believe that your friends don't like me
When they were all mutual before OUR beginning
Unless it's in the way you translate me

I'm beginning to think I've made you hate me

    I like. You said so very much with so very little. The first stanza was a bit hard to follow along with. The second just rolled off my tounge, nice job. write on.

    Yea I feel like most of my writing is a bit hard to follow. But I just let it flow, I guess I should put more thought into things. :) Thanks for the comment.
