3...2..1.



3...2..1.


Haunting phantoms
Here for now
Or to stay


One is happy
One is sad
One just IS


What do you want
What do you want
What do you want


Time

I have it
I move slowly

Three men
Connected to me
Each the embodiment of their past-present-&-future
 

 They linger before me
Reminding me
Of what it was like to sit in limbo

I watch and wait

For the dust to settle
Or maybe

For the shit to hit the fan

I listen and read

I acknowledge each and every word
I know they are just words

Beautifully offensive
I appreciate the honesty
I dismiss what remains

Fallacious
Erroneous

Lacking action
These words are merely verses in jest


Three men
One didn’t want me when he had me
One is incapable of loving for now
One says that he is not the one
But still waits for me to write


Here for now to impede my path

Here for now


Or to stay


Bait me with your verses in jest
No need to call your bluff
Lack of action will do that for me
The words will loop and loop and wear themselves out

My eyes are open to the game
I am aware of the rules of how it’s played

Take hands and spin
Laugh
Become dizzy and afraid
Lose focus
Fall down

I will not fall for words
I will wait for The One
Who means what he says


Love
I am here
I move slowly
We have time

I really like this one and everything else that I've read so far -hehe. My friend has been begging me to read your work for sometime. I am really glad I did! He has such a crush on you. He is right. You are the whole package.
