Certitude

All those years watching Charmed 
Learning how to throw a potion
Now I’m half woman and half emotion
As I struggle to find the balance
The equilibrium that used to be my talent
And I could always say
I wouldn’t have it any other way
But now I side step the cracks
And think of all the things I would take back
But you can’t erase time
And the mistakes and mess that is mine
All because I melted down
Like they threw cold water on my mental health
And I suffer and I crave
To be something that the people save
And I offer a chance
To the dudes who wanna dance
But I turn them all down
Bed down and then leave their town
For my own plot of home
Why am I happier on my own
Like some kind of female king
A queen that rules everything
And not to borrow from the monarchy
But there’s something that’s been nagging at me
Like the princess and the pea
What happened when you spilt the tea
And I dropped right out of the picture
Coz I can’t handle the stricture
That you impose
I just loved you and the rose
Thorn pricked my skin
Now I’m bleeding over him
While he just goes about his day
And I wonder if he’s okay
And I really hope he is
But I must admit it’s my ardent wish
That he might change his mind
Or have a change of heart
Coz I wanna be a part
Of his looks that he simply throws
And, like Pru, I take one for the road
