Lady Mary

She comes in so many forms But in each her effect is so divine No matter the delivery She distills the pain into wine

Human quest for fleeting joy Seems a cruel joke in a cold universe Being alive with questions Is a wonder that evolves into a curse

In those times that I desire To turn off the crisis and forget In an effort to escape All of the learned pain and regret

I digest I drink and I inhale Whatever sweet concoction you provide Which grants me a pass to leave The war being waged deep down inside

But in all things moderation So sayeth a wise person from the past Sometimes one has to endure Whether its suffering or having a blast

Confusing and without conclusion This verse is like getting good and high Makes me feel good right now But does not help me figure out why
