Playing Possum

.
What you do
let me explain
Elvis in his later years
Always on my mind
perfectly poised
a pace behind
calm possum

And then there's me
running rings
daisy chains
Pulling strings
spiking your drinks
but your steadfast smile unwavering
to my manic depressive state
finding me singing
we can't go on together  
finds you caressing inner soul
like I pledged true love ways
till safety in numbers with the tide
I'm missing your arms again
yet you always been my number one
like its from first breath taken
don't you just know it what it's like
my caller from overseas
whispering my true love ways
saying I'm feeling it too with you
