Totality: Barring No one of Hope:
In collaboration with Michelle Phillips-Standish
I have loved you through every era ;
each passing decade,
made the yearning sweeter-
Yet, time continues ticking
without exception passing
in a day, week, month, year-
I have longed for love
as deep as yours ;
A connection- ‘til now-
Unfathomable !
Enjoyed lives’ detours,
scenic routes and dead ends.
With apeice of heartbreak
Came experience- knowledge,
needed-
A heart on the mend.
Clearly,
cuts deeper, than others ...
A liquid stitch fix,
often most
feel the need of drastic intervention —
I debated,
you
Yes you, would ever come !
Without the idea hope of your existence—
literally the Earth,
won’t stop spinning-
in actuality mine,
will gradually:
impossibly, improbably, implode
wither, and die in a impolitic way !
In totality,
does hope override,
our innate instinct?
Knowing ,
you’re on my horizon-
Kept,
anticipation, and love alive.
Hope is the force
of our actions ,
some days,
Keeps,
me driving forward-
one foot in front of the other
Does hope give us patience?
Or does the lack of emotion,
make us impatient ?
Barring no one, of hope-
Without,
we would have no reason
to tackle a new day-
Continually,
stuck in a perpetual state
of hibernation !
