This Place

Sassy Lou

One step forward

A million back it seems

Why, oh, why

Doesn't anything ever work out for me?

Is this the pathetic I should be on -

Give me a sign, show me the light

What is the reason I keep coming back to this place?

A lesson to be taught -

Mistake to be fixed?

Darkness & melancholy starts to set in -

Others like to partake in the shenanigans & nonsense

Pack up  & leave time & time again

Just like that, I'm back with no reason or rhyme

Let It comes to surface the reasoning for returning to the place I despise

By myself, alone, I feel safest

Out of the reach & sight of the evil doers & their lackeys

Hiding in the shadows -

Awaiting their next attack

Begging to learn the logic for me being here

My mind & well-being has taken a beating

Miles away & more; I want to be

Ready to leave & finally be free
