And I don’t want to go back into
spinning, swirling mixes of missed signs
and continuous misfortunes unfolding.
I never saw this coming
but it was clear.
Will you interfere?
I don’t care but I DO.
I don’t want to share any of YOU.
Confusion, drumming loudly in my ears
Dancing thoughts flicker and sing
songs of pulling water,
pulling water that could drown them if I let it.

Signaling an open wound to reopen,
and let loose the inner beast
Jealously can’t evolve into devotion.
It only swallows you whole,
sucking away your lifeline, your soul.
Pumping blood turns from red to black,
threatening to never let “you” come back.
Let it be and swim parallel to the waves.
Jealously can’t evolve into devotion.
Remember this the next time
you’re witnessing your open wound.
Close it off and seal it up.
You’re better off disengaging.
