Complicated Situation

You Are

You are the Cabernet Sauvignon
that stains my white carpet.
You are the silent silver arrow
that leaves a fatal wound in my heart.

You are the intoxicating melody
that brings life to my soul.
You are the endless gentle rain
that moisturises my spirit.

You are the unrelenting sand paper
committed to perfecting me.
You are the inescapable dungeon
in which I am held prisoner.

You are the cranberry juice with vodka
that floods my blood stream.
You are the spellbinding heroin
arousing a craving that controls my life.

You are the hiking boots
that leave my feet in blisters.
You are the refreshing cool shower
after an eight-day trek.

You are the acetaminophen
that relinquishes my pain.
You are the bleach
that removes the dirt from my unclean past.

You are the illustrious symphony
that brings an overflow to my eyes.
You are the alluring low lighting
that allows me to unwind.

You are the warm, aromatic bath
that seduces me sweetly into submission.
You are the unaided stream of light
that vanquishes my hopeless thoughts.

You are the final coat of purple paint
that completes my dream.
You are the colourful arc
that reveals it’s self in a black and white world.

You are the revitalizing back porch
on which I can freely and foolishly dance.
You are the chord progression
by which I can sing out of tune.

You are the captivating smile
that tells me life is worth living.
You are the rapturous laugh
that encourages me to keep breathing.

You are, unending.
You are, You are.
