 can't make it


hello
welcome to the party
i'm glad you could make it
except I don't know why you did
I've been here in this state of waiting
for my entire life
you come and bring
hope
you leave and take that
newness of hope
with you
it is imprinted
on your back
and the last image
i see as you depart
from me
yes it is just life
it means as much as
we make it
so why do I make it
end this way
every time
a life
lived
a life
given
away
a life
taken for granted
a life
loved
a life
thought of
a life
gifted
and wasted
a life
that should not be
apparently
and I insist on
trying
what a waste
of life
take from me
a soul that knows
of love and its depth
and give it elsewhere
i do not deserve
to sit here now
and wish for it
i desire for
another to
embrace it and
give it breath
for it has become
true that I can't
make it real.................
