| Platonic Undertow | ||||||
| Back to poems | ||||||
| Your tragic flaw Is that you get caught up In the platonic undertow It holds you down And you're afraid to take a breath But sooner or later Everyone breathes You wrapped your car around a tree today What a simple mistake What a dyer oversight Now you're gone But it doesn't matter Because you were always caught up In the platonic undertow Seeing only your pathetic overflow Of selfishness And loneliness And now you're gone |
