Filling us up july 27, 2012

 

she pumps up egos

 as if we are all flat tires

forcing air into our bodies

 through that small

yet significant nozzle

 we all possess

 making us feel as if we are needed

when in truth she needs us

 feeling our heads up with hot air

that has us prancing across desperate highways

 at speeds faster than sound maybe even light

we feeling so inflated, so important

 we can't help admire her

 almost willing to give her anything

so she will keep us feeling that way

she fills us up knowing

without her we are empty

 stranded along the long road

 without Jack or spare

she fills as up

like she would of flat tire

 and keeps us filled

for as long as she needs

 wants, yet never long enough
 for each of us aching for her touch

 on our no nozzles

so we can feel whole again
