and when you looked away
i pulled a little harder
you moved a little futher
i waited a little longer
for a little more bait
had to hesitate
had to wait
had to meditate
on what was going on
in between the actions
and subtractions of lies
you wrote some lovely things
and when you looked away
i read a little more carefully
you edited a little more cautiously
i loved a little more openly
despite the change of lines
had to hesitate
had to wait
had to meditate
since the timing was a little off
or so it seemed or was it deemed
by me once again
you left a lovely footprint
and when you looked away
i looked down a little longer
you pressed down a little harder
i became a little stronger
i had a piece of a piece of you
did i have to hesitate
did i have to wait
did i have to meditate
no
but i did
so now
this one's for you
and babe...
i wish you knew

Mil! Heyo...I really enjoyed this one, especially the repeating of the hesitate, wait, meditate thing, and the "did i have to" that you added to it in the last stanza. Very cool. Loves it!
hey carly!

I AM tempted...but I feel as though I would be completely lazy on the upkeep. Excuses, excuses, I know...:P
