My Ghost Enters A New Mouth

PART A: Oil & Vinegar
Of memories and experiences together,
you’ve edged me closer to a breaking point like a consensual torture and I’m starting to understand why I’ve stayed for so long.
There are some people that you just can’t be apart from no matter the circumstances. 
When you were muted by your own punishments, the silence allowed me to scour the plane of a broken mind. 
The destruction of your broken heart initially gave me peace but it quickly turned to pity and near disgust.
That is one reason I travel further into directions I’ve never ventured before; to escape both of our tedious paths.

ENTER AS STRANGERS, LEAVE AS FRIENDS
She reenters with a whole new face, a whole new vibe, and a whole new attitude.
Bright lights will strike down,
Deliver the performance of a lifetime, an exhausting endeavor like no other;
You are about to die, enjoy your rewards
They treat these establishments like playgrounds, committed to the outcome. 
What no one ever initially knows, and what no one will ever explain, is how horrifyingly these consequences will age and spoil.

For me, that mythical middle ground can be viewed as a paradise.  However, one must consider the purpose of a paradise, in it's definition:  par-a-dise - an ideal or idyllic place or state.  As people continue to work towards goals, some obtainable and some out of arm's reach, the mind creates this idea of what it thinks it wants. When obtained or gained, we find ourselves underwhelmed, or almost disappointed by the outcome. Slowly but surely, that nostalgic feeling of home and familiarity rushes to the for...
