Distractions

Distraction

What a road I have followed

ever winding and long

distraction has taken me 

to places that were wrong

they were scary

they were sad

they were crazy 

 they were bad

but I have you figured out

distraction of my mind

you tried to protect me

make me think things were real

when you thought I couldn't cope

with the things I needed to feel

so now I am on to you

and the pain has gone away

distraction is no longer with me

I am free for many a day
