If you could be with someone who actually loves you
leave me right now.
I am not an anchor tied to your ankle dragging you down,
drawing you into a sea of regrets
like overboard rice
taking on too much water and becoming mushed mash,
so even when you try to save them by throwing a line,
or holding out a stick,
they’re too far gone for you to get a grip.
You’ll go unfed and your soul will starve
when old age reveals it’s long awaited scars.
Same goes for me.
I’d leave in a heartbeat that beats twice
in two.
It has nothing to do with me and you.
But in my mind she still flattens the rice out,
even and nice…
Not undercooked
and still on board
waiting to be rolled cut and served.
To me maybe...
I do not know.
So I wait patiently
with the others in line,
while our opposites wave on bye,
waiting for two peaks to meet
and two valleys
to depart.
That is a certainty
of two caught eyes.
That is the key
to a victorious heart.
