My Truth

I wish that I could see you now,
There is something important that I would like to say.
If you could hear me out right now,
It would really make my day.

In the short period of time that we've known each other,
And the very little time spent together,
I have told you much of what I felt,
And you still float away like a feather.

I have offered you much of me,
Yet you backed away,
And I'm left here to ponder why you left,
But it only gives me more things to say.

Look into my truthful blue eyes,
Look hard and believe me,
What I am offering might not be what you want now,
But what I have for you is what you are going to need.

I will understand if you left,
Your priorities aren't set,
And you aren't sure if this is the thing,
That you want to reach up and get.

We might not have too much to ride on here,
Our conversations have been rather dry,
But before when I saw the real you,
I then knew for sure that you were worth a try.

I know myself to be a very picky person,
When it comes to finding someone great.
I make my judgements from the heart,
And very rarely does it ever seem to deteriorate.

And when my heart picked you,
Then my eyes did nothing but agree,
I opened up my mind and everything spilled out,
Leaving myself wide open for only you to see.

What I've shown you,
And what you have comprehended,
Seems to have put you in awe,
Because no one has ever done it for you beforehand.

But don't analyze the situation much,
All you need to know is that it'll work if you need,
The fine details will be ironed out,
And happiness is the plant that you seed.

Washboard Blues

My favourite saying of late Is that I wanna cry. The world has been crumbling around The people The state of affairs The disbelief. I say the words Jokingly But there's a piece of me That would kindly accept A tear... Or two. There have been more days Than less That I could use a reset button. I would start it all again, There are times where I regret Everything. If I wanted to live with no regrets I probably could have done more I probably could have said more I should have meant more. Morbidity Mortality Time... All things weighing me down. There's this sudden end It's coming soon Sooner for some Not soon enough for others But it's coming. If I was to go right now Away Gone Left it all behind... I don't want anyone to think of me After the fact. I don't think many will Some might A passing glance Something to do But I'll be gone Somewhere more To where I'm supposed to be. Africa Asia Europe Or Beyond. I haven't quite decided Yet But I will.

Snowy Interval

Our winter is right around the corner And the thought takes me back To when we found ourselves Last time around In the coldest of days. Even in those harshest of elements In the coldest of all the months I couldn't feel the chill Because between your smile and your words They were the best of days. And just like the unpredictable Alberta weather The storms rolled in I tried to stand my ground Withstand the worst of what it could throw Until I found the peace to know the storm was me. The summer months were devastating The air was dry The sun was unrelenting It was a record year But the chill in the empty hole was all I knew. The leaves have been falling awhile The mind wanders when unchecked Smelling the weather changing Has the heart reeling For another one of those great snowy intervals.

Not Yet

I'm trying to resist It shouldn't really happen I don't even know for sure. It's a good thing Not knowing keeps me from falling Too far from too much.
