another poem

inside
- Nicholas Nery


so close,
so far.

so brave,
too timid to act.

ready,
unwilling.

a mass of contradictions,
conflicting descriptions,
thoughts race in ever flowing repetition,
every recollection.
scenarios play,
fearful of every depiction.

hiding,
running.

from the subjugation of humiliation,
regardless of the possible sublimation,
in an effort to increase our relation.

so i lie,
in wait,
in hope,
as i recite this incantation...


living,
loving,
learning,
losing,
make the move or not im choosing.
cause im feelin' you,
are you feelin me?
just say the word and together we'll be.

forever and ever till time itself collapses,
till the very essence of life relapses.

i can give you my all,
keep you happy,
warm,
healthy.

you'll never get cold,
never have to grow old,
just say that you need me,
