Time and Again

There are still times when I think about the lies – and the hunger I had.
I still think about belief or the lack of which I now have.
You will never see me drown.
Time and again, waiting, watching, breathing patiently.
Time and again, foolish, childish, idiot, desperate.
Time and again, trusting, listening, begging for more.
Lies, lies you keep inside, you think you can hide.
Not everyone’s stupid, blind.
One day, you’ll be left behind.
