I'd like to stop and take the time
to say hello
or maybe just goodbye
but at least that's something
I'd like to read your poetry
but only if you read mine
and I understand
nobody has the time
I'd like to stop and take the time
to listen
instead of speak
but I feel I can't ontrol my voice
I'd like to be there for you
but only if you're there for me
and I understand
you don't have the time
I'd like to say
neither do I
but I know damn well-
I do
