Can I Talk To You

CAN I TALK TO YOU?
(The Rising Executive)

can I talk to you
before you take that
step, close your eyes,
leave my world?

can I talk to you,
or has that job
with its richness, its power,
affected you already?


can I tell you how
it is when you
are high and I am low?
can I talk to you?

can I talk to you?
I've said good luck and
goodbye, you've said nothing.
I guess its to late to talk to you.
