To A Small Fish It's Such A Big World

When I'm drowning again, in my bowl of self pity It's always made worse by the fact I know I'm the one put me there; For I'm the gift horse you can always refuse, Offered so generously Like a motherless baby, always looking for a home; Grabbing everyone's leg, making eyes Like a toddler learning to flirt, Insinuating myself into circumstances Where I have no business, and no future. It's painful watching me humiliate myself Again and again, Because the feedback loops go around me; I only see love everywhere Because that's where I want to live: Everything in the universe is a baited hook, And it's a dangerous place to live For an uncomplicated fish like me.
