When All Else Fails

by

Brbadpenny

I never understood why first impressions lasted so long.
A first mistake can be fatal.
The apology can be a life long try.
A good liar must have a good memory.
So to me it seemed easier to confess and move on.
But now When All Else Fails. Deny. Deny. Deny.
Hitch up your skirt. Hike up your trousers. Circle the wagons.
I am so romantically impaled.
When I set out on a seek and rescue mission to save my heart and find true love.
Why do I always end up chasing my own tail?

I'll never understand what the mentally subdued has known all along.
I guess I should stop trying to analyze why.
It seemed to me the best way was brutal honesty and blatant truth.
But now When All Else Fails. Lie. Lie. Lie.
Empty the accounts. Pull all the punches. Force the issues.
Romantic roadkill. Patience is to no avail.
Place my heart in the Lost & Found.
"Wanted and missing: Seeking true love"
Why then do I always end up chasing my own tail?

I can never understand why I am so mis-understood.
When did YES mean No? A paradox of opposites collide.
Keep them laughing. Keep them guessing. Keep up the silly moods.
But When All Else Fails. Cry. Cry. Cry.
Ride the storm. Surrender to the enemy. But stay true to form.
I am do romantically offtrack and derailed.
I always felt that the thrill of the chase was where you eventually found true love.
So then tell me why do I always end up chasing my own tail?
