Symbiosis

Once again, I find my heart ripped out by another fine girl I poured myself into. Here is the resulting word vomit with a little rhyme to make you happy...

We travel along on a lonely highway in the dead of night

The darkness surrounds us and not a star is in sight

We press on though darkness as the world around us sleeps

Tonight the world consists of just you and me

You stare into me, eyes aflame

We dodge mice in our path, swerving into the other lane

I had forgotten this feeling deep inside of me

It rises to the surface, begging to be free

By the time we get back the sun has already begun to shine

It reflects off your skin with a radiance so fine

We talk for hours about our complicated lives

Until sleep overcomes us, and you lay your head on mine

Others are jealous of what they can not achieve

What they strive for is what I've whole-heartedly received

I never asked for anything more than to be with you

Was it irony or fate that made me look like such a fool?

Seeds of dissent began to tear us apart

Was I right to ignore my head and not my heart?

You let the lies of jealousy seep into your soul

If only you could see me now, and what the lies foretold

Time heals all wounds, the old adage goes

But the scars remain forever, a reminder of the blood that once flowed

Though you're lost to me now, your memory continues to amaze me

I'll remember you always as my rose in a field of daisies
