Monogamy

Even now, its followed me In the midst of a cloud of smoke Objects scattered randomly - around Also when I'm sound alseep I feel it sitting on my chest Cross-legged, twiddling its thumbs Knowing I get no rest Stuffiness is everywhere And all eyes are upon me I cannot look at them - because I cannot look at myself Looking back at a living lie And knowing not of its depth

No, Monogamy.. Or the inability to be monogamous.. and the guilt that follows, the lie you create to forget and deny it, and not being able to face yourself.
