"TRAFFIC"

 "TRAFFIC"

Caught the intuition shucked, left silenced in the rearview

Desperation knows better, still, I steer through

Heart tossed in oncoming traffic, adultery lane

Each collision, my essence scattered, pain sustained

Logic be damned, core pulse couldn’t fathom

Life void of that pachouli, weed aroma, a solemn anthem

Lust trapped in brown shag, memories mix and tangle

Fragmented reflections in the carpet, emotions dangle

Love on the freeway, tailspin of betrayal

Paths twisted, promises frail, detail veil

Scents of the past, woven through fibers of us

Shag carpet chronicles, trust turned to dust

Desperation’s whisper louder than reason’s scream

Heartbeat’s flutter, caught in an adulterous dream

Patchouli scent lingers, ghosts in the seams

Weed and lust clouded vision, shattered dream themes

Nightmares wrapped in brown carpet’s embrace

Infidelity's texture, I can’t erase

Trying to navigate the wreckage, on a surface so plush

Feet stuck in the fibers, trapped in the hush

Love on the freeway, tailspin of betrayal

Paths twisted, promises frail, detail veil

Scents of the past, woven through fibers of us

Shag carpet chronicles, trust turned to dust
