Whenever It Feels RightA Poem by Ernest James
You've been away for some time
And I've been just itching to pick up Where we left off Revealing what I've hidden away for so long The sooner that it was over the sooner you were out on your own Out on your own Well the thoughts that still drag in my mind Are the classic terms that you would recite As if they were posted As if you had forced them "Forever and Always" Isn't that right Well as for me I'm in inclined to state that im fine As for me I'm thriving off sympathy Condolences that console me Though old habits so frequent To them now I am enslaved Hoping you might come around And remove me from this state Well I'll become adventurous Doing all the things you would not try Whenever I feel like Though that hardly sits right Because you're not here by my side Well in case you're inquiring In case you're asking after me I would lie And I'd deny and state that I'm fine As for me Im fine I could be so prominent Revered for all the feats I've accomplished in my life Lathered in foolish pride Though that hardly sits right Because you're not here by my side But I will wait Until whenever it feels right Whenever you feel like I'm banking on clarity A new vision to console me Though derived hesitation I've locked within my pace Because you might come around again So I'll stay here just in case © 2014 Ernest James |
