Effect Clause.A Poem by LydiaHow much effect did we just cause? To be perfectly honest, I'd rather not look you in the eye. And to reveal all my lies, I never want to see you again None of this "just friends" I know you now, and That's not how you work With your flaws and your flirts And if I could blame it on you, Then I would But like everything else: It's my fault. No Macbeth, and Certainly not a Lady, I think not Just my willingness to Succumb to temptation A lot has been cast and I'm waiting and watching, Trying not to worry as You reassure me with Lullabies and "baby"s And maybe, just maybe This wasn't what I wanted And stop with the "baby"s Because I just lost it © 2008 Lydia |
