waiting (Remove filter)
another waiting room; another waiting room (04/25/2024)
the tracts where sleep ran
ducts thru navel
smoky rivers, freshly stained
while we wait, fidgeting in a
too-big waiting room
too big for just the two of us
too small for all the thoughts
too small
for the silence .
it smells like a barber shop
and the fixtures buzz idly
bright, but flickering
and I remember that
you can't smoke in public anym...

Waiting For My Nobody
Tired souls sigh together,
lovers have given up on getting better,
but I will continue to stay with the withered tree until the end of times.
We have exchanged the word 'forever'
and thus I will patiently wait untill we are back together.
I will wait for you, my Nobody,
until my body cannot anymore.
Until my body decays
and my bones slip into Mother's embrace.
Even then...

The Lonely Old man Sits by the Window
the lonely man at the window
the old man sits by the window
she left him here yesterday
said she would be back soon
he went to bed but could not sleep
has she stayed away on purpose?
next morning he arises again
to sit and wait even if it takes an eternity
he said he would wait
and that he did until his dying day
this morning at daybreak

Every Night
Every night I have this dream me and you walking down the stream
hand in hand down the narrow path your words resonates in my heart
we talk about here and now ,past ,present and future somehow
suddenly you stare at me asking why me
neither I am rich neither I am poor but somewhere in between dear
neither my looks are worth a dime
so why do you give me so much time ?
Heari...

woman in starbuck's window
woman in a starbuck’s window
woman sits in a starbuck’s window
looking, searching, waiting, watching
is it the thing that watchers
in an Edward Hopper painting
wait, search, look, watch for
does she know
who she is looking for
who she is searching for
who she is waiting for
who she is watching for
I wonder if the subjects in
Hopper’s pa...

Waiting
there's that distance in her
something remote and far
like the canals of Mars, an
ice monolith atop a star
her soul of cosmic mystery
went to places I cannot ken
sheathed in armoured silk
none knew where or when
in those blue eyes is infinity
windows on time and space
blinking before shutters up
in a cryptic chain-mail face
enigmatic were her ridd...

The tracks
Sitting by the window, she looked out and somewhere, look beyond. Life has been fair to her in more ways than one. She has been blessed with a good health, family in the prime of her profession yet a deep longing throbbed in her heart. An unquenchable thirst.....
The distant sound of a train echoed and her back from her reverie..
Like the two parallel tracks,they both were together Yet distant....

I need you
My love, I need you.
Here I am falling in love with the beauty of the world.
Waiting for you, as if it were the end of the world.
I do not mind the wait,
I have the time.
But I have to be honest,
I need you.
I've felt you before,
and that's fine
Someday I'll see you,
and I'll know.
And even if you do not know, it's fine.
I have love to give and loves will ...

I'll get back to you
Five words can be all it takes to set your mind at ease for a while.
Great, I'm not forgotten you'll think.
I am of interest.
But time passes.
Time heals all wounds?
Time brings with it opportunity for worry.
Time is the enemy of the impatient.
Time feeds the anxious like oxygen feeds a flame, fuelling the panic until it burns so brightly it consumes everything in it...

Last call
Its the final curtain lets see who was acting and who really hurting
A burning desire to be a follower no matter the case
Instead of showing some back bone you rather limp home with your tail tucked between your legs
I bet you thought you was big dog on campus till you seen a real monkey act up
Even a rose got thorns dont think a beauty cant defend itself
You got grass thinking...

Depending
I hate the arguging and the cursing
The fist fights using words and
The long walk through the fire aint no beach over here
Its just a pilliar of mixed emotions waiting to get knocked down
Im not gone hold it up lets see how long faith keeps it up
Now im the one laying with a frown
You disappointed fine i get it but that dont mean you dont tell the shopkeeper wassup
You still...

Somewhere
Somewhere
I know you're out there
I can hear your voice in the wind that rustles the leafless trees
Like them I'm waiting for Spring
For warmth
Nourishment
To grow again inside love
I'm searching for you
I chase my shadow in the fading colours of the setting sun
Look for your message amongst the stars
Face upturned
Bathed in moonlight
In awe of the universe
I've dreamt ...

Nervous -- 07/2015
Sitting
Waiting
Thinking
Flaking
Run until you can't stop
Go before your bubble pops
Breathe
Relax
Short and deep
How can this be?
Shush!
Just wait and see
Nice and easy
One step at a time
It'll all be fine
Sitting
Waiting
Thinking
Staying

Daydreams -- 07/2015
Time winds down
Tick tock
As I watch the clock
Days go by
It seems
Dreams so pristine
Staring out the window
Daring to follow
You to the horizon
Thursday 29th October 2015 2:06 am
Late at night
Late at night you lay
Face in pillow pointed away
Tears gleam and in the reflection they glare so unyeilding
It's so late so late at night
Is it almost day
The clock ticks and tocks but doesn't move
The hours tick by endless
It is late at night and all thoughts are awake
Laying in bed wondering what happened with fate
Remember the promises you made the promises layed to...
