distraction

I need some kind of distraction 
maybe romance under the moon 
something to take my mind off 
of all these thoughts of you 
I'm trying to out run you 
but it's a one way street 
always too much traffic 
quickly you outrun me 
It's like swimming in the ocean 
with a dangerous undertow 
and I am so close to drowning 
I'm just too tired to float 
I need some kind of distraction 
maybe romance under the moon 
something to take my mind off
 of all these thoughts of you

Perhaps writing such beautiful poetry will be distracting...and get you back on track!
