Red Water Rafting
Like a bullet to my brain, he stains,
Tying me up in love tainted chains.
On the stairway to cloud nine,
But what if he isn't really mine?

The endless chase of hot and cold,
With a man dangerous and bold.
Speeding, commiting a hit and run,
My soul begins to come undone.

In the midst of red water rafting,
Unforeseen feelings are unmasking.
Accepting a bewildering fate to not escape,
Entranced by this intoxicating landscape.

An obsession that towers, not cower,
Depleting my power to devour.
A spinning wheel out of control,
Swallowing my very being whole.

Yet I ask myself till this day,
Is this about predator and prey?
For who will take the blame,
In this strategic chess game?

So complex, I truly can't tell,
What are you trying to sell?
Looking in the mirror, I constantly yell,
"Are you my Heaven or are you my Hell?"
