Intentions

Pretensions-

Questionable decisions

Illusions

Conclusions

Disturbing intrusions

Passions

In fashion

My life without captions

Perturbed

Disturbed

It all seems absurd

Subliminal

Criminal

Impressions are minimal

Toxins

Concoctions

All pretty good options

Impressions

Confessions

Life’s a delicatessen

Contentment

Resentment

Prearranged containment

Wined

And dined

You’d think I was blind

Observations

Frustrations

Lack of conversation

Nuptials

And bubbles

Misleading couples

Decisions

Provisions

Intentional collision’s

Abrasive

Invasive

Slightly evasive

Coincidence

Elusiveness

Supplemental forgiveness

New beginnings

Sloppy endings

Defining new meaning

Rekindled

Swindled

Getting caught in the middle

Exceptions

Rejections

The need for protection

Sensation

Temptation

Expected elation

Secondary

Legendary

Over momentarily
