The Mercurial

was he really that complicated or  
was he confused she mused
why would he refuse to just choose
make a choice
was he too afraid to lose?
was this all just a ruse?
well time is running short
and she's starting to feel a bit used
how many times did he bruise her ego
left her alone at night with  
a heavy heart singing the blues
only to excuse his behavior  
the very next day
in favor of her love for him
and the way he makes her ooze
constantly hitting that reset button
putting her intuition on snooze
secretly fretting she may  
be regretting this in the future
letting time tell the tale
as she puts her soul on cruise control
and continued to inhale his
murky hues of love
