Now

Yes

we can.

No - we shouldn't.

But

we do and

Then

now what?

Blame you?  Blame me?

Let's blame someone - blame something.

Then we can stand clear

and shake our heads.

"Poor souls

so sad,

we tried to tell them

they wouldn't listen."

Told us......"Go away, I know what I feel."



I can handle this

create my world

shut all out

rest in you

soar in me.



Manic craves,

heady thoughts,

whispered love,

urgent words.



They led to hurt

forsaking all

feel the NOW.



The now is gone

promises,

reassurances,

never again.



And still that thread

wraps around,

surrounds.



Where you want me

I will be.
