Same ol' Shit.
The microphone stands and I stand to deliver.
Come on JR .. you can do this.
The audience looks forward into mysterious eyes.
"Don't go changin'.... to try to please me. "
It takes all I have to sing the next note.
How many times have I wanted to say
exactly this, and not be ... cliche'
It lies as only this... a moment.
I have no regrets ... there is nothing I would change.
Yeah Right.
You know me as I know you
Better than ourselves.
This is never what I asked for.
I just wanted... Forever ... unconditionally.
You deliver with no questions. Here I sit.
I wake hours before you ...
Watch labored breaths and wish I was there.
When I am, I float unbridled by dismissal.
What I want and what I need...
two different things.
These things I ask in HIS name.
He holds pen in hand...
I listen to the words over and over...
I try to accept the inevitability of its truth
"Better son or daughter"
You are the best... who could ask for more...
And then again... I stand a Cliche'.
Nothing I say ever explains the truth.
Give me something to go on.
I am so insignificant sometimes.
No matter how hard I try
You still remain in some unseen dream.
Walk this way... I stare in deep brown eyes ...
The world wonders where I wander and
We wander as we wander through nothingness.
Is it worth it?
Every moment.
I would give you the moon if I had to explore
The depths of hell to make your life just that...
Easier.
"I don't write love poems... but you...
You make me want to start."
This is how I live each moment.
Waiting for the next ... breath.
As long as I'm next to you.
I counted 1567 heartbeats and memorized them all.
Cool... calm ..... collected...
Sweet as an ocean breaze...
And I was the only one who knew.
Each nervous stare was calculated and dismantled days later.
This is how we float dreamlessly.
Sometimes its insanity.
Yet I languish the possibility.
I never asked for forever.
Merely unconditionally.
And still I wait for reality.
And you ... remain untouched.
Exactly the way I imagined.
One more cigarette before the dawn.
One more tune before the drive home.
And I sleep alone.
These things I ask in His name.
AMEN.
