"onandon" poems
You and I alone in a car Surrounded by people speaking in Spanish No one dares look at us. We’re different We’ve always  been different Whether we be fools or kings-- Dumb or smart, right or wrong! We fought and fought. As I  hung onandon        to Every. Last. Word. Every. Single. Word. And every phrase which cut deeper and deeper Hurt more and more while you laughed and laughed. Broken down on the side of the road Thinking that what you said was funny. You are not funny. It was not funny. It would never be funny. Now we sit here in a car. Sitting       and       Waiting Waiting     and        Sitting Wanting someone to acknowledge the other Begging for someone to acknowledge the other Minute by minute, hour by hour… And! Nothing. Not one movement, not one word. Nothing, just nothing.   …Only! Foreign people      speaking          foreign languages, With foreign instruments             playing foreign music. Louder and Louder commotion came We grew afraid, we were afraid. As we inched closerandcloser And closerandcloser. Suddenly! A touch , a feel, some finger, a hand! Together. We sat quiet and quieter.     I glace next to you and slowly my heart melts As the cha cha quickly creeps into our soul. It is right then I knew; I  don’t like you but        we’re friends; I don’t like you but                      adore you.
