Ride of ParadiseA Poem by butterflyHis lips on mine made my sugar high There we sat in the afternoon We escaped our world for a bittersweet move I see the truth He only misses me when he is horny I cant deny he is my favorite kind of sweet This time it was more rushed We thought my mom was out there tending the garden bush I supposed I am the one who has to give him up This vessel is empty of love I still feel his furry arms under mine We just laid together silent Trying to hold on to this sweet lie Yet Its a lie I suppose he will never leave his wife I am the one who has to prove she still has love for her self in this life Round and round on this carousel only to get to the end of the ride Its a ride of paradise I can no longer see the sick truth in his eyes I should have known better to expect love in a toxic land Dear Lord give me strength to say goodbye to this man Or let me keep holding his hand Let me be the one to save him drowning in this quick sand I love him its true I feel the wound when he says he has no time for love He asks me if I will block him again We fall silent as we know the answer in the end....
