Prodigal

 

Prodigal

 

Here I am once again

Without a lover without a friend

But who am I

To take the rules of love and bend

Them

Into the shape of a heart

With hopes to start

A new life with you

 

You attraction

Was my distraction

Of what I needed to see

Now my reaction

Is, that this is what needed to be

My feelings are out of my hands

For I wish they were in my palms

So that I would not fall so deep

And end up singing another sad song

But my emotions are uncontrollable

And my arms remain unfold able

Because I’m upset

We were supposed to go

Far

But here we are

Still going far

Just away from each other

Into the vision of another

So I pray that your new lover

Will treat you half as good as I did

So then you would be able to see

How I treated you fully

With respect and sincerity

As for me

I’m going to make sure my lover

Will be a math equation

Half as good as you

Multiplied by four

Which would make her

Two times better than you

And exactly what I am looking for

But all of that is uncontrollable

And my mom told me to pull

Back out of that relationship

But I did what most kids do

And not listen

Now I’m stuck wishing

That I could calk the cracks of my heart

And chalk a fresh line to start

With someone new

Someone true

Someone who

Would love me for me

And I would love her for not being you
