ONLY A MOUSE LOST IN A MAZE


I walk through life as a mouse
finding my way through a constantly shifting maze
picking my way across the shattered dreams
nbsp;that lie unsteadily under my feet.

A condom lays unused upon my pillow
from a woman who wanted to go to bed with me
but didn't want to use the condom.
I still lay confused on my bed, with her dirty heart,
somewhere in the back of my mind.

What does she want me for if not to kiss me,
what am I but a fulfilment of lust
that serves to quench
some form of basal avarice in her heart,
And all the while,
I'm only a mouse lost in a maze


being used for an affair.
