You The Hunter (Me the Prey) – Written Thursday 25th April 2024 (Aged 49)

You The Hunter (Me The Prey)

pieces of my mind – they fell away
it was in the place,
where control couldn’t stay
in the place,
where she and i, we once lay
i dreamed about you the other night
you were a passenger in a car,
and we had arranged to meet,
but i was late,
and as i turned,
i saw you, there in the car,
but it sped away,
i ran after the car, but i couldn’t keep up
and then i remembered,
the strange telling,
and the strange truth of dreams
as i joined, subconscious scenes
pieces of mind fell away,
when i knew you,
when we were intimate,
when i so loved you,
but i loved you in such a way –
that it ate away at me like a cancer
but then I was always the pray
and you, you were always the hunter
