misty in Poetry & Free Verse

this is acting

we're too tired.

i fill a tall glass,

i got drinks to drink, and men to hold.

there's no more fighting, 

so come back when i'm good and old.

i thought you were a hurricane,

you came to take me away.

like an animal

i need you,

but

as long as i keep dancing

i'm alive.

your body's poetry

and

this too shall pass.

there are no winners when the die is cast,

it's just young lovers' romance.

(All lyrics taken from Sia's album, This Is Acting.)
