Hitchhiker

Have you always been liked?
Have there been times
Of sorrow
Or do you just live
Pleasant
Into tomorrow?

Do you hate?
Do you spite
Worry about
This?
Do you complicate
Matters into oblivion?
How long did you wait
For your first
Kiss?

Do you know
How long I’ve
Waited?
Have you ever
Experienced the thoughts I’ve
Contemplated?

A subway into
The dark
No
Terminal at
The end
I don’t wait
Just say
Go

Breathe
Deep the fumes
Of patience

Drink this wine
Tonight
It’ll make you
Feel better
Save some for me
I’m feeling
Contrite

Why couldn’t you
Wait?
I have been
With you all
Along
Can you feel it?
Ever present
Hate
For the one you
Let go for a
Song

Gone
But the damage
Has been
Done
He cries now
But he holds
My heart
In his
Hands
I cry with him
But
At least he’s having
Fun

It’ll be a starry night
Look into oblivion with me

My words
You cannot understand
How
Could one
Who’s already been
There
Step into the shoes
Of
The hitchhiker
You passed
With the one
You let go for a
Song

Such violent thoughts
What’s on your
Mind?
The dust spun by
Your tires
Has left me
Blind

I got my chance
And took
I am done waiting
But such violent thoughts
Plague
My mind
Such tired queries
So jaded
Adnauseam
Between my ears
But your innocence
Was lost years
Ago
