I WAS WISHING

Folder: 
CONVENIENT GAPS

 

I was wishing

to unfold the petals

of your soul


and fathom 

the depths

of your heart


but alas

time has passed

and time has come


to recognize

that it is not to be

though the argument


could be made that it was

probably something

that was meant to be


but we were both

too utterly stupid

to realize it.
