Month: June 2018

I
Know
You
Won’t

So many
Layers
Of heartache
In this

Why can’t joy be
Found in what we
Choose to pursue
Regardless if
Anyone else
Knows of it?

I’m afraid
That if
I extend an
Open invitation
I’ll be the
Only one
Who shows up

There are always
Consequences
Whenever one decides
To take action
Rather than
Watch opportunities
Come and go

Whenever I find myself
Daydreaming
I am reminded of
The time you told me
“Good luck with that”
And walked away
To strike up
Conversation with
Someone else

I can’t
Force my way
Into your life

I can now see
Clearly far ahead
But lost being able
To know the details
Right before my eyes

When we finally
Get to talk
You never seem
To open up enough
When I want
The moment
To last longer

It would be nice
If somebody
Noticed me
First
