I knowA Poem by Lyr J. ThirskI know ive lost, I drive home on a dash line railroad I hear ads that tell me I got a hot time girl Tells me the number 7, ten times in a drunk language Then there is the lesson about debt consolidation As I maneuver in a cruise control prison On rails that are wood and iron If wood and iron are asphault for high priced vehicles And I know, I know ive lost One time, I had 7 days in five years, Where I touched, I laughed, I talked, I sat silent I drank and ate with, I determined, I studied, I caressed, I made her to coo while I pulsed inside her I tasted and I indulged, I imagined, I confused her, I came to be a father In my mind, in the time she wouldn’t give me to prove In my everlasting Friday night of potential, I saw her in pucci, and we spent time, we were silent with noise I destroyed her resistance with my passion virus, And it addicted like heroine, in her no time, in her lapse In her 3 days of temporary permanence, I sung to her and told her words that made her melt, And then was when I won, But now, with nightmare ads on cruise control railroads And memories while anticipating a comfortable couch on a worknight And girls who physically comfort me and love me and I don’t return it to them And turn them down on an excuse of friends with benefits, No benefitial friend but her, no creator of a family but her No piece of linen with rough edges like sandpaper on wet skin No cry on a terraced grave when she was lost No meaning to shoot my brains out for, but her My temporary victory And calculating my wake-up call, based on my drunk pathetic vibe I know ive lost, I know without her, ive lost© 2010 Lyr J.
