Oxygen
I breathe, just a little longer,
lungs become confused by hunger.
A bit of romance floating in the mist,
dancing with love being a gist.
Every pull I take is starting to hurt,
punching at my chest for it to work.
I breath and feel a little closer,
finally I feel, well, sort of.
Face by the real reality,
we have a dangerous compatability.
You're with me everywhere I am,
Back of my mind, deep inside, or on my hand.
To be a man, I'd have to just leave,
but to do that I couldn't breathe.
You're a habit that's getting to me.
There's something inside me; rust.
You patronize it down to being lust
But evil has nothing to do with trust
It's a drunk and disorderly dependency
Was it you that made water currency?
I'm eighty, dying from what I need.
Soon I'll be paying a dollar to breathe.
