{yikes} Okay,
that was read on a heavy day
with a heavy heart
okay, I admit.
I don’t [want to?] get it
Must mystery be
if we must part
please I ask you
do not replace
mystery for mystery
one that’s old,
for one that’s new
what you wish
it will be
{if I am reading you}
but spell it o u t.
don’t leave me here
in to pout about
I wait still
for you
right here
because today the rain
paints my vision
and today is not the day
for any kind of decision
I wait still
for you
right here
May I not have offended
and caused
some
[mumbles]
it will be carried weightily
some still
until
it will be
my awkward cheers
wailing out hopes
and fears [for years?]
I wait still
for you
right here.
