YOUR OWN TRUE LOVE

Knowing what you know is not enough

Your own true love

Is stronger than you are

Despite all that has happened

We need each other only for the game

And the bottom line is control

There may be no answer…

I feel as if everything we’ve ever said

Drifted away on the wind

As if nothing mattered

Silently,

Other sensations

Just keep stalking you

Threatening voices replace

The writing on the wall

And you realize

You can’t always land

On your feet.
