Black Poetry : If Not Now, When? By Dúbb'l yoo T

[waynethomas]

Your clear intentions
Rejecting the thoughts captured by many,
Who
Through the
Endurance test and mental quests
Travel via life lines and times
Of a
Journey that should end with the relief in finding one,

(To me and you 'The familiar process of "soul searching"' Written by Mr. Jus. L. ife)

Mirror my current view
In which
I've asked for my own search party's recalling.

But there is something missing…
Something that has been
Over powered and replaced tonight by
Our conversation chemistry,
Though our
Distant sexual anxiety,
The concentration
Needed for making space for
Memory retention
Of the
Explanation of your
Distance's traveled
Building my knowledge of your
Life's intentions…. For me…

Both young,
The responsibility of our child –
Time –
We both shun,
But with his maturity growing within
Our eyes
By our now
Premature morning conversations,
Parallel expressions are enough
To explain the question asked
'Where has our time gone…?'

Many words could fill to make
Many sentences to phase minds state of
Momentary emergency,
But one simple combination of letters
Above all
Always remains

So lady of tonight...
"When will I be seeing you again...?"

If we could somehow have a crystal ball to foresee the future. Makes me ponder about a few people I have met, and the directions those meetings took.
Thought provoking write.
