Sinking In Oil
Sinking In Oil
As I walk down the street,
Hoping to meet
The reason for my pain,
I can’t help but think
How easily I let myself sink,
And whether I am still sane.
In times of distress,
My thoughts drift,
And to her, they shift.
Once again, the waves of regret hit
Bit-by-bit,
Till the sickness fills
My body from head to toe
The thought of an opportunity lost
Was too much to ignore
But never had I thought
That the chance has taken
Would cost me more
The agony that results
From loss
Seems to never cease
If only it were a passing breeze…
