Tangled
Friends come and go
Family on a distant road
All I've got is time alone
With hours on the phone
Trying to find answers
To love lost and to the struggle
Of living in this tangled
Impenetrable asphalt jungle
I succumb to too many emotions
Internalized, briefly analyzed
Separated and compartmentalized
To no avail
I watch life spinning
out of our control
slowly detaching
from flesh and bones
Transcending into
a virtual existence
With a wicked persistence
I must let go,
let go and burn
To never return
