Someday
the point is never to wait to say what’s true
whilst knowing and honoring the pace of things
. (which is never my pace of things)
never knowing what time we have,
. what’s true
i’d like to tell you how i’ve felt sans risking what we’ve had,
which will happen, always happens
. once you know
you promote truth but
don’t know mine or
what’s coming or
that you’re it . that
i’m chronically in love
and
i see more than ever why this can’t . and shouldn’t . be and
. that we are impeccable as is . but
it’s just you have this spectacular brain
which prohibits consideration of . my love for you
. which is prohibited . which
creates a chronic, crazed kinship with the forbidden
. you don’t see
you’re my ideal world but not of it . you’ve made quite sure of that
so, . but
i still find i’m right in the end
whilst heart throbs with wrongness
. do you fear me like the others
. now you see
secrets have been, always
the only way my
life keeps going
holding all these secrets
i can never say
hoping to someday, maybe,
. say them
dreaming of what’d happen if you knew
maybe everything would be different
. maybe nothing
maybe you’ve always known anyway and i’m just here
. having wondered away life
. praying you’ll find me soon
