Primates

Why do I still care, even when I’m not forced to?
There is only up to a point one can take in
But this I cannot
Losing a friend hurts more than losing a lover
The world is a cruel horror movie seen in 3D

Lord knows I live to the best of my ability
There is life after death
No horror movie shall swallow the uncontrollable monkey in me
I still live on without my better half
Yet I miss that chimpanzee of mine
