Morocco

Morocco

Plain
White
V-neck

What I
Fell
Asleep in
Too late
To remember

And from
the receipts
I barely remember
Bars
Or paying

Too tired
But not
Sloppy
For I gave up
Years ago
On that venture

Cities
I've visited
All pictures
Taken
Posted
On my wall

And a
Girl I
Wished
To meet

Never
Appeared

So
In the morning
On a plane
Coffee
Served
An eye
Opener
To life

To the
Next city

To hopefully
Find her
 Because
She's out
There

Surprise surprise

Surprise surprise

Surprise
Surprise
A few hours
Too late
Money spent
Committed
Just like you
Waiting
Patiently for
 Your flight

Your love
to carry
Over mountains
Oceans
and seas

And you
Wish
His wish
Finally revealed
When
It's realized

Too late

Your surprise
Is his for you
No longer
Interested
But airing
On the side
of someone
Else's arm

 Too late
For balloons
and cake
No welcome
Party
Needed

For all you
Wanted
Was to
Surprise
When only
You were
The one
Surprised

Surprise
Surprise

Patience

Patience

Patience is waiting
For her to come around
Wishing for a star that will
never
Fall

Hoping for hope
Hopeless hope

Because growing up
Too soon
Is a blessing
And a curse

And we don't
All grow the same
As the clock continues
To tick
On our life
And our patience

Here's to
Hoping
Here's to
Wishing
She'll grow up
She'll come around

Atlanta Summers

Atlanta Summers

Summers
Spent in
Atlanta
Well the first
To say

More or less
To believe in a
Likely
Scenario

The
Sun
Beating
Down

Making the
Beer
Sweat
That I drink

A lady
To tend to
Rather not
Tend
But just
Love

Parks
Similiar
To what
I'm used to

And I'd meet
New
People
Her
Rather
Here

But I guess
I can
Wait
Until
The summer

After this
When she comes
Back
Back
For good

All Smiles

All Smiles

And I see your
Picture
I know
for
Once in my life
I could never
Love a person
That smile
Like

I do yours

Even
As time
Grows
Us apart
or
What have you
I stumble
Upon
And I see

Your face
That smile
Years after
The fact

The spark
Lost
Reignited
At least
For the moment

I Never Thought

I Never Thought

And
Well
I never thought
Of you
That way

Well I did
But that
Was
When we first
Met

And now
As if it's a
Distant
Memory
Only to
Smile
When
Looking
Back on

And when
you
Least expect it
You say
Goodbye
Rather
Hello
Just
So I know
 You're leaving

And your
Journal entries
Although
I never read
I'm sure
They would
Be NY Times
Best sellers
In my mind

But if
I ever
Really did
I would
Understand
Why
And understand
 You

So I guess
It's hello
And I guess
This means
Goodbye

So Tough

So Tough

Toughness
in my voice
As if catching you
Cheating
Doesn't breed
Toughness

But
The weekend
Prevails

A
Soft
Spot for
You
Always
And
Forever
But

 You'll
Just
Never
Make it
Back
