Free MadnessIt Doesn't Have to Be
I once wrote a love song about cigarettes back in the 90's. This is what emerged when I went back recently and quit again..kind of voice dialogue meets prose, rotfl...thanks for your indulgence. Bad habits, sigh...can be as seductive as a toxic old bad relationship, as many of us know lol. Anyway enjoy.
You're weak.
I don't have to be.
You still want me
Not anymore.
Look at you, you're gaining weight.
And your point is??
If you come back, you can look good even dead.
No one looks good dead, especially young!!
You're shallow.
I don't have to be.
You cling to the Norm.
Are you the "norm" anymore??
They'll take me back again.
Now that's funny.
Only a matter of time.
Get the smoke out of your eyes!
Come back.
I have a life to lead.
You're nothing without me.
I'm nothing with you.
You have no life.
I can breathe.
You will kill someone without me.
I will kill someone with you...
AND myself.
Do I need you to breathe?
To sing?
To love?
To Create?
Do I need you to walk?
To run?
To bike?
Do I need you to work?
To cook?
To sleep?
You seemed to ease my pain
Ease my stress
Speak sweetly my name
But you suppressed
What cannot die
I don't have to kill you
I don't kill everyone
It's only their fear
That keeps you running
Keeps you lying
Lying to yourself
Lying to me
You didn't want to go
You did it for Them
Not for yourself.
Admit it.
If I could keep you with me
And be safe, and be free,
but what would that be?
As I turn away from the Earth
From all I have to give
Just to feel your sweet caress
So addictive
So seductive
How many songs go unsung??
How many dreams will die??
You'll be back.
I'll leave the light on for you.
I have my own light, thank you very much.
Besides, I don't like ashes on my piano.
