You turned off the lights
Unlocked the front door
You let her in
Said your needed more.

Never enough
The pleasure …. the pain
The thrill of desire
Starting over again.

A loss of desire
A matter of time
She came along
The next one in line.

Break out the wine
Spare no expense
She’ll be impressed
Your feelings intense.

Like nothing before
Her head will be spinning
You’ll make her feel great
Right from the beginning.

One night in the dark
The longing ….. the fire
She’ll do what you want
She’ll want to get higher.

Nowhere on earth
Has she ever been
Beyond the clouds
Where the air’s Iacocca so thin.

So thrilling ….. addicting 
So intoxicating 
The power of lust
So captivating. 

Without a doubt
Pushed to the brink
With no time at all
To stop and think.

The clock will be ticking
But she’ll have no clue
This feeling won’t last
No …. never with you.

Spit balls and pea shooters 
Skate keys and chalk
Let’s go to the park
Let’s take a walk.

Stick ball and baseball
Cardboard airplanes
Tree forts and horseshoes 
Crayons and games.

Hide and Go Seek
Races and bikes
Rope swings and gliders
Whatever you’d like.

Run like the wind
Skip all the way home
Play in the backyard
With friends or alone.

No laptops …. no cell phones
No video games
It was so simple
Wish things …. never changed.

I went back to your apartment
You had moved away
I followed up on every lead
Looked for you every day.

I spent my days wondering
Remembering nights with you
The quiet exchange of memories
Of the things we used to do.

Never dreamed I’d be without you
Never thought that you’d move on
Thought we’d always be together
But something had gone wrong.

I wasn’t what you wanted
No …. I could never be
The one that you were looking for
The one you really need.

I’m calling again
Please pick up the phone
I know that you’re high
Please stop getting stoned.

It’s time to get sober
You’re losing your grip
You must be so tired
So tired of all this.

Please put down the pipe
Shave off that beard
Clean yourself up
Stop acting so weird.

Your ship needs a rudder
You don’t need a drink
Get back on track
Before your boat sinks.

You’re not by yourself
Don’t go it alone
Please take my calls now
Please answer the phone.

You never think of others
Before thinking of yourself
So hard for you to reach out
To offer any help.

Always in the spotlight
The center of attention
Sharing of one’s compliments 
The bone of your contention.

Extremes and innuendos 
Passive and aggressive
Always an agenda
Always so obsessive.

The antithesis of kindness
So shrewd and calculating
Trying to get over
Always shrewd, manipulating.

Getting someone else
To do the work for you
Anything to put it off 
Telling others what to do.

Looking for a victim
Needing someone you can use
Someone you can boss around
You thrive on the abuse.

Alone …. you are an island
You push everyone away
No friends …. no one to speak of 
They’ll just get in your way .

But …. some have paid attention
They are cautiously astute
They know the insincerity 
They know what you’re up to.

Spitting on the sidewalk
The perfect analogy
No regard for promises 
No excuse or apology.

It’s time for me to walk away 
There’s nothing I can do
I have simply had enough
I’m tired of wanting you.

Been charging up the middle
Always meeting with resistance
Been getting knocked around
Complete with callous consequences.

Feeling belly up
No options or recourse 
You show no depth of feeling
No guilt ….and no remorse. 

Got your invitation
For a late night rendezvous 
I won’t be coming over
I’m done…. so done with you.

You lied to me
It wasn’t fair
No second thoughts
You didn’t care. 

You played around
I should’a known
I’m not the one
Who’s always stoned. 

I wasted time
Time spent with you
I didn’t know 
What else to do?

You have  your friends
You have your wine
I’m  sick and tired
Of all the lying.

Don’t call me up 
Don’t try and text
Don’t hit me up
For late night sex.

I’m through with you
I got my stuff
There’s nothing else
I’ve had enough.

Cast aside
What could I do?
Came out of nowhere
We were through.

Couldn’t fight it
Or make it stop
Felt so confused
Knew I was fucked.

All our plans
What just happened?
All the promises
Now forgotten.

All the things
I felt inside
Could barely speak
I wept …. I cried.

Like a child
I felt so helpless
No reply
I was so jealous.

So deeply crushed
I couldn’t breathe
I heard you say
“You need to leave”.

“She’s moving in
You have to go!”
Why so  cold?
Why so low?

The words …. like echos
Kept repeating
My heart was broken
I was bleeding.

You didn’t care
Pushed me away
Told me to go
To leave that day.

I felt sick
What could I do?
Out of nowhere
We were through. 

Couldn’t fight it
Was in shock
Felt so confused
Knew I was fucked.

All our plans
What just happened?
All the promises
All  forgotten.

All the things
I felt inside
Could barely speak
I sat and cried.

Like a child
I felt so helpless
Had no comeback
I was so jealous.

So deeply crushed
I couldn’t breathe
I heard you say
“You need to leave”.

“She’s moving in
You have to go”
Why so  cold?
Why so low?

The words like echos
Keep repeating
My heart is broken
It won’t stop bleeding.
