Am I the only fish in this ocean
that goes head first for that lure
with it's dazzling shining beauty
I swim towards it for a cure.
I can't seem to free my urges
this bait is way too good
I know I will regret it
if I bite this unforbidden food.
But hunger is a void
in my case it is a crime
and I return to take a nibble
at this lure every time.
I know some day I'll get hooked
and the Angler won't let me free
but I continue taking chances
on the other side of me.
So I swim here in the current
in the tide of a lonely mind
and battle against the waves
from that lure who keeps me confined.
