The Lizard and The Limbo

What a life to live,
Of unfulfilled dreams, 
And broken promises,
Standing over my head,
As I lay under the squeaking fan,
Wishing the lizard would fall over me,
And free me of this limbo.

The images, 
Of her hair blowing in the wind,
Death hunting a friend,
A limping dog,
And an education gone wrong;
Passing as a shooting star,
And you call these experiences, 
I dare not call you anything.

Oh lizard! I damn you,
Throw yourself but not the tail,
It's not the tail that I had asked for,
Then why did I get the tail for a lizard?
It's not a lie that we live,
Yes but what shall be the truth then,
If it's not a lie that we live.
