Sweet Mystery

by Twan - Aries

you are still the mystery i chose to seek
in a sea of manufactured personalities you remain unique
unlike others you loathe ghetto, become for real
i could have been down or a navy SEAL 
ha! sweet mysteries of life i thought opposites attracted
and yet...we're basically the same
and neither one of us is particularly lame
some poet i am, i can't get it right
but i have now seen the light
all those boys i was with, i have to leave them alone
before i get crushed and blown
out like the proverbial candle, i'm trapped in paradise
stuck with those motherfuckers when i felt like head lice
but the sun comes back out and i am not like barney fife
i'm enjoying you and the sweet mystery of life.
