I'm caught in a downward spiral

my heart's somewhere viral

or maybe it's gone feral

Now loving you is crucial

but I'm far too critical

and we're just a hypothetical

Will you be my love, prodigal?

Please, it's not rhetorical

and our lives seem theoretical

So let's dance the metaphysical

bathe in the metaphorical

and live tantric in the physical

But my mind's gone delusional

Is your love only superficial?

Your mouth was so brutal

Are your heart strings artificial?

Did I hold them once, or not at all?

I honestly can't recall …

I thought you were magical

but thoughts are often antithetical

and reality hits something visceral

I see your truths betrayal

it's written boldly on every wall

says baby, for a good time call

This love was something mystical

tried to soar on wings proverbial

into places dark and phantasmal

But you weren't really there at all

and I won't survive this fall

I'm caught in a downward spiral
