Here manifesting
this love, not the dreams of
self served magic
I’d rather, share this polarity
between here and there
with you, then to
encounter well wished scenarios
that are short term studied
I got these, bottled elixirs
titled “poems”
filled with words like verbs
nouns and adjectives
compressed with brain steam
and feelings, I’m sending
by way of vibes your tribe made
when tapping percussion instruments
intrigued, I sate by the way side
awaiting your solo
as if the song you’ll play is just for me
and you, maybe even the universe too
but I’ll make do with the aforementioned
listen, you take my breath away
so I’m on borrowed time
for you to blow kisses my direction
just for use of oxygen
the words I could say
we’re used to write this poem
for impressions I know you’d have
because that’s what I manifested
from the beginning of this lyric
just to distract you long enough
to kiss your spirit
while you were looking.
