Escape
|
I use them like a box of tissues when I have a bad cold;
Soil and toss each one before it gets crusty and old.
I've yet to find anything that can withstand my abuse;
When I want a little of their time, they always have an excuse.
So move on to the next I am always on the search;
To get what I want and not be left in a lurch.
Weary I grow, a hollow shell inside;
I can't find the truth through all of these lies.
The attention might be nice for a little while;
But loneliness creeps in and always cramps my style.
Never satisfied but for small fleeting moments of fun;
The gray winter sky depresses me from the lack of sun.
I want to sail away to the island of my dreams;
Where everything is perfect or at least that's how it seems.
Coconut palms swaying in the breeze;
Every tranquil moment I will surely cease.
I look upon the ocean's vivid colors of blue;
Seems my restless thoughts always return to you.
Feel the heat from the rum washing over me;
My toes are in the sand letting be what will be.
I want to melt away right into the beach;
Never be tormented not finding what I seek.
Shades of turquoise and deep cobalt;
Is there anything than can make this urges halt.
Slipping through my fingers like crystalline grains of sand;
Maybe what I need is a woman not a man.
I am about to reach the end of my rope;
My mind torments me yet there is still a spark of hope.
It is an insanity I feel I can't control;
Expecting changes to come but I am left cold.
Wondering about the future and where I might fit in;
I need a fresh new start but I don't know where to begin.
It must be that I have too much time on my hands;
Why this searching never ends I do not understand.
They say that I love him but that's not how it feels;
He is a drama queen everything is an ordeal.
I'm so tired of waiting for my ship to come in;
Stressed and so weary my patients is running thin.
In a state of limbo I don't know where I stand;
Floating through this life is my only plan.
Taking each opportunity as it comes to me;
I need that escape that will finally set me free.
