Spinning, burning

Running away,

Flying, fleeing,

Nothing more to say.

Quickly, sadly,

Forgetting where I've been,

Hoping, wishing,

To wash away my sin.

Trying so hard

To appear to look tougher,

When burning inside me

There is so much to suffer.

Trying to uncover

The secrets of my past,

But when I do

Will I have peace at last?

Angry, vicious,

I do not hold back,

Pushing, hating,

Forcing all in my attack.

Calling, yelling,

She shouts out my name,

The sound of her voice

Nearly makes me go insane.

Excited, thrilled,

I whirl around,

Disappointed, angry,

There's no one to be found.

Maria, Maria,

If only I could find you,

My life's very purpose

Would once again be new.

But until the day

That I see you once more,

Spinning and burning will be all I live for.
