Lets Drink To The Pain Of Your Neurotic Behavior.

Lets Drink To The Pain Of Your Neurotic Behavior.

My mom once said dogs are just like humans;
When one has fleas, the entire pact has them.
and, when one dies the entire pact dies off
one by one, and with each death it's more lonely.

Her thoughts remind me of you, my dear.
One by one you break them, make them fall apart.
You leave them with a broken life,
but with each one you become more lonely.

You realize your life is but a lie,
living in the moment's not always the best,
For you're left here alone, and half dead
with no where to go and no where to turn.

To the right there's another heartbreak awaiting,
To the left it's but a fire pit calling your soul.
And, straight ahead's a life of pain filled with lonely nights.
But, behind you's the worst - you'll be living in your past.

Lets drink to the pain of your neurotic behavior,
It seems you're just like dogs themselves -
You follow the pact, let yourself down,
then you die a little more; one by one.

    I really liked this piece. It was quite unusal expecially how you used the similiarity of dogs and humans. Interesting. I liked how you aptured my attention from the first stanza and kept me interested from start to finish. Your word choice simple yet so effective and the flow was smoothe and didn't go off track what so ever. A nicely penned poem Teria. Keep up the good work. ~Mel
