The Switch

Sometimes we all wish for a switch for things in our lives that don't exist.

I can't turn emotion off

I can's turn emotions on

Perpetual state of flux

Whims in full control

Heart beats change the switch

To different tune on my radio

I can't feel nothing

I can't feel everything

Figuring right for wrong

This ill-fated flip-flop

Shadow boxing the better self

Mental controls only an illusion

I can't get any closer

I can't just walk away

Timid reflection of stone

Armor is stripped to bare

Caution leads to heartfelt thought

Absence of contact blurs all lines

I can't just shut down

I can't turn myself on

Justifications are just words

Compassion is often one-way

Juxtaposition the blind resolve sought

When tears don't sting my eyes true

I can't talk about it

I can't stop talking

Killing time begets pride

Sorrow laced with ego

Beauty found in the rough and broken

Idiosyncrasies soup du jour to this soul

I can't ease the pain

I can't cause any more

Hell bent aiding others

Sanity lost in payment

Wanting not wound of the adored

Passion unrivaled in hearts so close

I can't leave it alone

I can't gets so involved

Pain beckons the immutable

Happiness in a quick caress

Many timeless wonders lost tomorrow

Repeated heartache the course so chosen

Very intelligently written it could be interpreted as when demons presence try to confuse persons from making decisions, usually demons spirits are created when soldiers of satan burn other soldiers with gazoline in the battle field and they cover them with trash and those burned soldiers souls become demons that never make it to Heaven

p.s.
All soldiers are soldiers of satan

Good analogy here on the switch and relationships. Your passion will be unrivaled when you are lost in the love of the present. Sanity will be a lost payment...Excellent...:)..................
