It took a lifetime
to understand what i had
what i didnt need
thought truth would be
more tangible
everyday more gullible
with naivety only
made it through
wake me up please
when our love is not profanity
does it haunt or comfort you
what lies behind
someday perhaps
it just strikes you
out of the blue
when plans come to naught
and those making them lost
for most of us,
it is a game of loss
