not yet i cannot
yet i cannot
i can't, i'm not tired enough yet.
catch me when i'm at wit's end,
turn me round, lay me down again.

in my mind's eye
i can almost define forever
it is the distance in time
before a flower blooms, after it is severed.

wilted petals may be stirred into cups of tea
passing time, biding, hiding in the lea
nothing can come soon enough
all a broken story dream
i am blind, they've called my bluff,
and the cats have lapped up all the cream.

i must be content with my watery concoction
it's mixed of regret and sadness
i'll swallow til i'm ill, this fine toxin
and blame none but myself for the madness

losing sight waiting til a different forever
something i haven't desired yet
anything that is forever.
Back.
