Intertwined Tangled Reality

Sweet poison spewing from the tongue
Innocent minds drinking it up
Living the moment in ecstasy
Intertwined tangled reality
A sense of belonging and vulnerability
Breaths filled with longing and desire
Arms holding close
Eyes searching for an…
Intertwined tangled reality

Live the moment selfishly

Conscious and yet so lifeless
As the eyes notice reality
Arms retreat and gaze lowered
Slowly the mistake settles in
Of an intertwined tangled reality
