You keep on Paving Street for Us

The concrete road

Of your unending 

Stubbornness 

Rolls on!...

You try to lure me back

Inside

To our old familiar 

Pond,

Where piranha 

Always bite,

And leave us 

Pulverized and raw...

You gotta let me 

Down,

My love!...

...Although a

String of roads

Extend...

I'm finally ready

To move on!...

...My heart is on

The mend.

You've kept on paving

Street for us,

While the daytime

Hours end...

...I don't see an end

To flashing lights...

...I must lay down

The pen.
