Fray

A fast paced, frenzied song about a part of myself that I have no choice but to live with.

Stuck in a sink hole

Feeling like a drunk w***e

Never thought I'd see the day that I will be the one done for.

 

Shaking like a sobering junky

Itching somewhere, can't scratch it

Feeling like a tormented lab monkey!

 

Never say it's too late

NEVER shun the thing I hate!

Never be the one to say that I will have to meet my fate.

 

Always be the one I like

ALWAYS be my crystal slate!

Always take me somewhere else than this place that I love to hate.

 

Do what you can to remind me

Your utter best to surprise me!

Shut up and despise me

Just stop right there and see my heart, every time our eyes meet.

 

Shake it up!

STIR ME THROUGH!

Give it all you got, don't LET IT GET THE BEST OF YOU!

Give me more

Don't give up!

Never EVER let it stop.

Wait right here

Come along

Step by step we do no wrong

 

All thats here

EVERYWHERE!

Every little thing we share.

Time to look

Time to care

Time to do things that one wouldn't dare.

 

Over and over and

OVER AND OVER and 

OOOVVERRR!!

AGAINNN!!...

 

.......Speak to me

Softly now.

Don't scare my thoughts they just came out.

Sleeping tight 

In my heart 

In my bones and all my parts

This is I

The me I fear 

The little one I hold so near.

 

I am

The soft, smokey cloud around those words.

I am

The one to cause the hurt

The one to fly away

The one who'll always stay

The one to cause dismay

 

This is, my lovely little fray...

Author's Note

This is quite psychologically twisted in a sense. See where it takes you and please let me know what you think!? :)

sounds like someone who has an addiction, and tries to convince his friend to help him stop taking drugs by being there for him and being harsh with him, try to help him stop his addiction. it's a stream-of-consciousness sort of poem and you really get into the addict's mind...perhaps i was completely off, but this is my initial impression.

Well I enjoyed the fray, the banter between this or that, up or down, and the flow was quite exceptional. :0)
