Abeyance

Myrmidon passion
No fear for love really
I could start again
Anytime

Married myself
Ring on both fingers
Had one on each
For two others
Now for myself
What’s left
To burn

Keeping alive
That’s a thing right?
Aren’t we all doing that!

Think of a time in your life
When something important
Was hanging in the balance
Paused, unresolved, waiting…
Am I

Waiting to shape
The eventual outcome
Found in the “in-between”
A state more frustrating
Less like irritation
More like fertile thoughts
For reflection

There’s no overreacting
No overriding just
A beautiful abeyance
That swings in the air
Gives way like a pendulum
A sound or a bit that is
Hinderless to the ears

Feel you feel me
Deservingly quenched

They resent you for surviving
Wish that you would fail
Hate that you love life
Despise that you avail

They resent that you are happy
Their misery wants you to fall
They only love you when you’re crawling
When your back’s against a wall

I could have been your opportunity
Nothing can make you feel any different
When you feel the way you do
Fake money fake car fake feelings
Just to be how you are
Sometimes you fake it

How raw

I can’t feel myself
I can’t feel myself
I can’t feel myself

You were so unafraid
When people acted this way
I need a balcony
My turn signals are broken
Pull me over
Drag me out

Into the street
Into the street
Into the street

I need a Bollywood dance
A medical cream
A high stakes bet
That my life is worth living

Why did she resent me
You loved me unconditionally
Why does she highlight my dark spots
You licked my wounds

Some people actually thrive
When we’re down

Paddle out

What Did You Feel

Was it real?
Did you feel
What you said you felt?
Now I have to question
All the things you said
And maybe it’s because
We never went to bed
And maybe it’s because
You can’t control me
Like you control everyone else
Or maybe it’s because
It wasn’t real
How did you feel
My recent conclusion
Comes from waves of outer space
Knowing that you could just be
A comet burning brightly
In and out of my existence
Just an outline to erase
Though we had years
To rediscover one another
I may not have been what you need
In this phase of your life
And I can’t need you
To be there for me
In ways that you’re
Incapable of being
Discovered
Too bad it feels
Too late

Feel

Do you feel the distance
Of keeping up but still
It’s so far away
Do you want to
Get closer
Keep reaching out
Asking the me
That you know
To be able to
Achieve the things
That feel the distance
Of letting it all go
Letting it become
What it wants to be
As we strive to have
Our voices heard
So many of us
Have things to say
But do not feel like
We are heard
How do we ask
For the world
To listen…

Do you feel done in this town
Is there a question
Going round about you
Or is it all in your head
Only we know our value
Watch it take off
When the truth of
“Who I am”
Rises to the occasion
There is only one answer
Be yourself

Grab a quill
Grab a pen
Whatever it takes
Make no mistake-

You never know
Maybe the one
You always hoped
To hear what you have to say
Will be or is already watching

Just Wait

How little do we know
How indescribable are those
That touch us in romantic ways
Without touching us at all

Figments of imagination
Joyous points of exhalation
Screaming inside with desire
Quietly composed with
Invigorating fire

Vibrating
Pulsating
Enjoying every moment
Silently traverse
Within ourselves

If I say nothing
Will you hear me anyway
If I do nothing
Will you simply walk away

Do I move
Or remain still
With everything I feel
