Thoughts


By Lina






you know I’m at it again. 
thinking too much wondering what if. 
sometimes it feels like torture 
flirting with thoughts like this. 
it must be a character defect 
at the very least a fault 
to have such an appetite 
to be in constant withdrawal 
for things out yonder 
that the eye cannot see 
quite possibly even, 
not meant for me

craving the path 
that remains unexplored 
perhaps an endless road 
to travel alone 
but dependant I am 
cannot break free 
from what it is 
I expect of me

seeking refuge 
I meld with metal and steal 
and as each mile passes 
the chain becomes surreal 
as if there is a chance 
she temps me time and again 
my mistress arouses me 
but never shall we wed
