Funny how when you’re not looking
Something catches you unawares
Funny how when you’re minding your own business
Intensity strikes from nowhere
Funny how when you click
In the most inappropriate of situations
You find yourself on a precipice
Of unrealistic expectations
Funny how certain vibes
Pierce you to the core
Funny how you’re propelled
Into sensing / wanting more
Funny to have to wrestle
With animal instincts you didn’t invite
That somehow ignited inadvertently
And set your furnace alight
Funny then when there’s a shift
In the energy and the walls come down
When somehow there’s been an abrupt change of heart
And there’s no turning it around
Playing on words
But nothing was said
It was all in the ether
But the fire is now dead
Not sure what extinguished
The flame that had accidentally kindled
But whatever it was has been snuffed out
And the enthusiasm has certainly dwindled
Maybe an invisible line was crossed
But it’s difficult to tell
When dealing with double-entendres
You don’t always detect alarm bells
But now they’ve clearly tolled
And their chimes are deafening
Ringing in my ears
The dawning of sanity begins
It was surely sweet while it lasted
But the plug has definitely been pulled
The fluffy pink cloud has dissipated
And the amber embers have cooled
Have I been strung along?
Or are there too many strings?
A chord was struck but now it jars
With my illusion of greater things
Not sure how to proceed
It takes two to Tango, not one
I’ve got a decision to make
And a lot of thinking to do…
