This is an emotion inspired piece. |
To the cards in my hand I say this: I will continue to stand Whether you hit or miss. To the card of the forever best friend: Always there for me, Always there to see All the things hurting me. Do you see through me? To the card of the past love: Let go of the past. Treasure who you have now. And make it last Your job is the 'how'. To the card of the close friends: I hope you understand And that you do not fret. Please, just understand That my dreams have not been met. To the Ace of Spades: This is a figurative Deck of cards. Your presence lucrative Do not tempt the bards To the card of the sister: Thank you for what you know. Thank you for all your care. To you alone will I show The end of this affair. To the card of the for now best friend: This was not what I had expected This was not what I hoped for You kindly directed My hope out the door "Just for now But not forever" But just how Can this be over? Love cannot be 'but not forever'ed But I can always try And if our love if severed You will never see me cry. While forever is too distant, And never is too close, I tell you now, this instant, I will wait, and to deep morose May I succumb, For the day you decide The right time has come To have me by your side. |
