Wreckage
by Kevin S. McFadden
I took stock of my life tonight
and this nocturnal triste
He stood naked before me and I knew
I do not want this.
I thought of you in the wreckage
and your beautiful smile.
I choose to drown in fantasy
and clothe myself in denial.

But after tonight I need security
and after tonight I need to tell myself
that I could make you happy.
I could make you....

I wrote a poem about my life
no one will ever see.
Tried separating emotion from logic
with my selective memory.
This song can only sublimate
my sissyphean fight.
Art will not reciprocate
or hold you in the night.

Get out of my head,
I need you in my arms.
