Wish I was a better lover

Wish I was a better lover Wish I had a better plan For dealing with this What I couldn’t understand For what I couldn’t believe in For What I am now To know how could this happen Wish I was placeless Wish it was no wish Maybe I should cry out Maybe I should drown myself In the timeless dream The dream I dreamed last night The dream I had dreamed thousands times The dream I m dreaming within seeming dreams Can this really be happening? Can this really be true? In the sanctuary of creation My abomination and my fears My fate and my faith My sin and my soul My mystery and my pains Just trying to keep this world from What it’s really true inside and within me How again this world end in such empty head Under the bloody sky On the one of days in the heart of grieving moments That I will break up With full of hope With full of soul Thorough the roads that I have taken Thorough the thoughts that I am a better lover now But not really for all moments in the transience of life Wish I mean a better man Wish I was what I m now

Without my current glass of wine, I’d say you’re spouting nonsense. As it is, I could meet you for a drink or two in JJ’s dimlit bar, and know exactly what you mean. A lover, after is said, and after all that Stephen Robins says, is meeting over wine and seeing eye to eye.
