Illogical Logic

Pili B 1965 (Puebla del Caraminal)



As it runs full course, can you now identify the source?
It was not a super power, just temporary witching hour.
Always in disguise but you refused to open up your eyes.
Simpler to just say hysterical, I understood the mystical.
I mislead and said defeat, but the planning was concrete.
No one has known the length, I have faith in my strength.
What you believed magical was never ever really logical.
It was apparent that I was the one always transparent.
Will I whisper in you ear, tell you what you want to hear?
We could both smile again if one just knew where to begin.
You refuse to choose and my promise is I won't loose.
There were never any terms, only that you stood firm.
You interpreted the revelations as personal accusations.
Holding the wrong hand, no one will ever understand.
I have to make clear this is not about any sexual affair.
It hurts more when there is no pain, read this again.
Too much in one's head, mostly that which is unsaid.
Tried, but got lost in our words wanting to be heard.
Always defense of that which I could never make sense.
Learned to let it flow and stopped putting on the show.
There is so much to forgive for one to completely live.
