The Inflection Point

Me and my job, we got it going on

i love her so, we’re five years strong

she dresses me up, i feel so large

when she scolds me out, i feel so small

She recently pushed me over the edge

in summers i love her, the winters i dread

i see an image of myself in her i’ve craved

so i’ll never get her out of my head

I feel so secure when i’m in her arms

we sleep in planes, cars, beds all strewn

this relationship she never leaves my mind

the price of just some early alarms

It’s odd finding someone so different from me

she grew up in circles i could never reach

worked so hard just to find my way here

now the end is insight; all the data i see

Twenty seven years working to stand alone

only to find her embrace as my strengthening tone

however this abuse i won’t suffer anymore

so baby it’s time that i hang up the phone
