Relationships are often marred with fear. But it's how we face with and deal with that fear that determines the success of those relationships.

Gather a friend and join
The hands of lonely people,
The skeptics and the cynics.
Love is not achievable
in this lifetime,
Not when You are your
Worst enemy.

There's a lady drinking an Iced Cap.
Red pants and an overwhelming,
Black baby doll.
Yes, she's studying.
She's studying a way to earn her Mrs.
But all she'll ever find is a PhD,
Piled hire and Deeper.

Lonely and dispossessed
By big dreams and solemn scarred
desires.
Too many men,
Too many cigarettes,
Too many wrinkles,
From worrying she'll die alone
And she will.

But You!
You who hobble after
hopeless handicaps.
You know who you are.
Always doing your best
to sabotage any
trickle of happiness.
Bite your eyes.
Give love a chance.
You're not the dumbass
you appear to be.
You're just scared.

It's only your fear
That is truly your enemy
Grotesque and hideous
Denizen of the shallowest
Depths of your soul.
I said shallow.
Yeah.
It ain't that deep.
So get over it.
Drown yourslef in the overwhelming bless of
Iced cappuccino love.
