Dichotomy

[kelzbelles]

The Girl Scout with the Dirty Mouth
I'm Looking North while heading South
No,I don't need your sympathy
I'm used to my Dichoto-ME

The sweet soul with the wicked thoughts
all I could ever need is lost
alone is all I'll ever be
If only I could escape me.....

The pollyanna sunshine girl
spends halftime in the underworld
and gives away her sweetest parts
while yearning with her half a heart

The strongest girl you'll ever know
gets beaten by the undertow
while fighting to swim far upstream
the water fills her silent scream

and all the people on the shore
they laugh and cheer and howl for more
they'll have forgotten by mid day
the girl the water swept away

and he will watch as she's swept past
his face blank as a pane of glass
his heart hardened to steel or stone
forgets the girl he left alone

and off he'll go to greet the day
the best in her he took away
now HE is who they clamor for
as all depart the muddy shore

and off they'll go to celebrate
the love they took and made to hate
as she sinks slowly with a sigh
so hard to live.....
so glad to die.
