Of late…
I can not seem to fake my needs.
Of late…
It is my needs I need to fake.
When I see you by mistake,
Creating tension…
With companion smiling,
Attentively!
Numb and delude me!
Include me in your eyes.
Show me a hint of surprise…
And loss.
Toss me a combination of lost love relived!
Include me…
With ‘that’
In your eyes.
Numb and delude me!
That’s all I need.
Even if that need…
Might mean my leaving you alone.
Numb and delude me.
Drive my heart with your touch to overdose!
Too intoxicated…
Until somehow I knock myself free!
And right now that’s all I need…
Just once,
Soothe this struggle.
Before I go!
