Toxic Relationships

Started out so innocently,

Wanting peace,

Quiet, 

Stability.

 

Grew up around chaos,

Home life see,

Much stress and conufsion,

Unpredictability.

 

No rules,

No boundaries,

No schooling,

No TLC too.

 

This made,

An emotional mountain,

Of epic proportions,

In Your spiritual fountain. 

 

Growing up,

Distractive behaviour for you,

Growing up,

Attracted to danger too. 

 

Fighting,

Stamping,

Punching,

Through and through.

 

Jack the lad around town,

Name getting passed about,

Many people,

Heard about you. 

 

Looks of desire,

From females,

And occasionally,

Gay males too.

 

Wanting the hot lady over,

Wow she's fit,

Let me get my hands on her,

Look at her tits.

 

Get to together,

Lustfully,

Stay together,

Dangerously.

 

Passion with purpose,

Intense love making for two,

Passion all consuming,

No stepping back for both of you. 

 

She's what I wanted,

Througout my life you see,

She's what I wanted,

Feel so complete, happily. 

 

Then the cracks start to appear,

Jealousy,

Insanity,

Lots of tears,

 

Arguments a many,

Who blames who,

Shouting matches a plenty,

Think I want to leave you. 

 

Stay away for more than a day,

Moth to a light,

Total compulsion,

I can't stay away.

 

Only thing is real,

Sex between us,

Communication,

I'd say a score of nil. 

 

How can this be,

Feeling so empty,

We are meant to be together,

Why am I so lonely?

 

Anger and blame,

Say's it all,

Attempt to quell the flame,

Feeling scorned. 

 

Go back to a life of misery,

There are other options,

Go back to singledom,

I was totally happy. 

 

Not sure I can break through thee,

Trying to fix something that was broken,

Impossible task,

Start again.

 

Nights out with the lads,

All over again,

Look at that bird,

She's defintely a ten. 

 

Eye's catch, 

One another see,

Eye's catch, 

Lustfully.

 

Throw my hand in once more,

Throw the dice,

Spin that wheel,

Wheel of my life.
