in a wench world ( x 3 )
always some wonk 2 do the work
-
he’s got the drive
yet she steers
taken 2 task
burden of proof
ready 2 make light
things hidden in plain sight
she’s out 4 a swim
he’s sinkin’ in 2 deep
=
he’s lost in the dtails
she c’s the big picture
playin’ 4 keeps
while losin’ a few chips
nothin’s left 2 chance
when everythin’ counts
he brings the dough
she’s like butter on a roll
-
findin’ out…
nothing 2 b done
findin’ out
what seems sweet… gets sour @ the top

surreal shapes takin’ form
slowly getting hardr 2 please
around the edge turnin’ ruff

put 2gether, only 2 fall apart

pullin’ strings tied in a knot
tryin’ 2 keep it lite
like the Nile, goin’ with the flow
=
with nothin’ left 2 give
u can only do so much
when things get out of hand…
less is more than enuff

fumblin’ along 4 a stretch
chillin’ indoors, against the wall
put in place, just 2 fill the space

ourselves 2gether
settin’ sounds lingerin’ @ dusk

with the choices we make
better not 2 know, when som1 won’t let on
let’s 4get about yesterday

no quick fix,
4 broken promises
chances up 4 grabs
time is now… 2 go 4 a walk

kiddin’ ourselves alone ( just kiddin’ our selves )

undr the surface
sportin’ some shades
smilin’ 2 depress
