Dear
oh it doesn’t matter
Mad as a hatter because I allowed your small plate to sit next to my platter
Grace my table with irreverent chatter while I feed your mind I find myself starved of decent conversation
We twist and turn like ice creams covering ourselves in that sweet sauce of lust
A desire for a good thing causes us to trust in the idea of trust without studying the mental photo of us
We dust off our baggage and brace ourselves for a rollercoaster
We’d rather be a Warhol poster than a negative in the darkroom
Sweeping the truth with the hardbroom of ignorance to the facts
We connect better disconnected so lets not beat ourselves into this and hope friendship covers tracks
We both want new roots to replace those hacked
Been rolled up like a door mat and smoked like a cheap spliff
It’s not enough to be seen as a drug yet our abusers aren’t good enough to sniff
I find I snort the game, yet you and I are each others supply of novocaine
We need to take control again, get out the window seat and declare I’ll be fly
Develop a new operating system a new U, I
We gotta precede to proceed
Sometimes you’ve gotta be grieved to be relieved
It’s like the release of held pee after you’ve heard that flush
The grass is only greener when you’ve grown it and treated it
Only then can it be lush, plush and give you that rush
Make you feel like its slowed down to your time
Our time
That’s if after all these checks in the airport of the mind your baggage is labelled alongside mine
See I just need time to check in with my mirror before I let anyone be an extension of my reflection
I crave attention, love affection, love to be loved but times I need detention
Learn the lesson of my retention before your name is the first humane I mention cos
Even though your nearer than I think
I don’t want to miss you if I blink, dismiss you if I get a hint that something simply ain’t right
Matter of fact we’re shaking hands until I know you’ll be around to watch this ink dry
Regardless
