Scrambled ( Eggs)
My mind it rambles on, it spews out
Thoughts and rhymes but, they are not focused it's scrambled
Like scrambled eggs in a frying pan
I need a decoder ring, just to remember, who I am
All I want is to be held, by my lost lover
Man; that woman of mine, she really did me in
Broke my heart, clouded my soul, and destroyed my mind
Made me void, of sexual contact and /or attraction
My Pride now shriveled and meek no love will I seek
Growing cold, to human contact and fearful
I pray for some kind of miracle, I have no clue as to what it may be
What could get me, out of this, my frying pan
This deep, dark cast iron, haze of sizzling depression
Could it be? Money, somewhere, or somebody?
I don't know and I don't care! Why does she get to me ?
She goes on living unharmed all day long, while I shrivel up and burn
She blew it! Why do I feel so damn guilty? She left you
You idiot! it says, once an awhile, I just can't conceive it, I held up the trust
I had no unwanted lust, for anyone but, her
I can't let go of all the Grand Illusions, I held for her and for me
For Us
