SPIDERS

Spiders in my bed
That just won’t let me be
Frantic, I can’t sleep
What’s become of me?

Can’t forget the past
Nothing I can do
Haunted by the memories
Plagued with thoughts of you.  

Such heartfelt misery 
The cold residual 
Lingers in my brain
Fills up my head, my skull. 

Not worthy of my time
A senseless use of space
Still can hear your voice
Still can see your face. 

The lies you told to me
All the false pretense
The promises, the plans
Your agenda so intense.

Need a neuron block
Innovative and advanced
Help me to forget
A meaningless romance.
