“BY NOW”

THOUGHT I WOULD HAVE HEARD FROM YOU BY NOW,

CAN’T IMAGINE THE HOLD UP, THE WHAT, THE WHY, THE HOW,

I GUESS MY IMAGINATION IS RUNNING WILD,

EXPECTATIONS TURN TO HOPE THAT COULD BE DEEMED JUVENILE,

 TO ENDURE THE RAIN – IT’S TEMPORARY, ONLY LASTS FOR A WHILE, 

THIS WAITING AROUND IS JUST NOT MY STYLE, 

MISSED OPPORTUNITIES AND THEY CONTINUE TO PILE, 

WALKING WITH MY THOUGHTS FOR YEARS, FOR DAYS, FOR HOURS, MINUTES, YARDS INCHES – EQUIVALENT TO MILES, 

ALL LEAD TO ONE QUESTION – IS IT EVEN WORTH YOUR WHILE?

ANYMORE, ANY LONGER WILL DRIVE A PERSON SENILE, 

SEE NOW IT IS LIKE WE ARE ON TRIAL, 

MANEUVERING, POSITIONING, WITHOUT BEING TACTILE, 

APART WE ARE MANAGING OUR OWN BORDERS AND MUNICIPAL, 

GOALS ARE NO LONGER TOGETHER JUST SINGLE FILE, 

THE FURTHER APART WITHOUT ADDRESSING THE ISSUES THE FURTHER AWAY WE ARE FROM RECONCILE, 

COMMUNICATION AND ACTIONS BECOME IMMOBILE,

RESPONSES ARE HOSTILE,

HEARTS ARE IN EXILE, 

MINDS CAUGHT IN A TURNSTILE,

VISIONS BECOME IMAGES THAT STOCKPILE, 

THE MIND IS SO FERTILE, 

TOO MUCH TO COMPILE, 

GROWING TIRED OF THIS WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN TOGETHER BY NOW.
