Uncertain Progress

Good things come to those who wait Well I’m done waiting. I’ve waited before. I’ve been heartbroken, I’ve recovered, I’ve looked and looked and been around, I gave up, threw in the towel. And then I was found. By You you who are so far away that distance includes a time difference Limbo. is not a state of mind! It is a heart breaker, Chest beater There are not enough words in the world Minutes in the day To express my frustration With You The universe My weak weak resolve To wait for you I’ve waited before. But I thought I had found you! Been found. Brought back to the place I had been before I    was    like    Eve,! in the Garden of Eden (pause) Love is like…… Being high But you still get the paranoia It’s just not as intense I’ve been heartbroken before They say: Distance makes the heart grow fonder? But no one ever said what it did to the mind Sleeping patterns, social skills and drinking habits? I could have loved you.! (But for that I needed time) You could have been the love of my life (Feelings grow) The one ( a concept we trivialised) Our relationship was facilitated By my own temporary living situation PAUSE This limbo is never-ending You drive me fucking crazy… Crazy to fuck In blue Yves-St Laurent. On top of covers, Never under. I guess the issue is LETTING GO. I don’t want to It’s not fair I just found someone who cares About music, and books, haircuts Me. My needs My pleasures You chased ME Right into my own mind Heart Body and soul You got me All of me; My virginity You said you didn’t do goodbyes. I’ve never had to say goodbye; But I think that we should have Instead of this awful purgatory That I’m wallowing in Doubt, pity and swallowing .My feelings. Because this was meant to be easier (plea) For you at least. I I just wish I was a vampire So I could turn my feelings off And recover And I can’t fully address the heartache, The recovery The looking looking, getting around Giving up, throwing in the towel Because like a child I am putting my foot down I don’t want to be found I already found you! I will make my way back into your heart. I will cross oceans. I will succeed Doubt and fear Of my own instabilities Abilities Or lack of… I have never been as uncertain. I hope you’re happy… That you make me feel this way… Not that I regret The time that WE spent. I loved being we. I hope that you would have grown to love me.
