Notes About The Poem

One the Eve

Where’d you go, boy - I’ve no way of knowing.
Life without you’s, less fun, than as I was hoping,
if you asked me, I’d have to say I’m coping,
but there are definitely times, I feel less devoted.

Hey, I’ve told you over and over and over again my friend
that what I need, obviously, is seduction.

Don't you understand what I'm trying to say?
Can't you feel the need that I'm feeling today?

We’re back in class now - it’s already getting stressful,
and you know how quickly unwinding gets essential.
I’ve gotten used to things that I shouldn’t say,
If I get desperate, there’ll surely be hell to pay.

And I’ve told you over and over and over again my friend
that what I need, almost immediately, is seduction.

Take a beat boy, I don’t wanna to be unfair here,
with any luck, you're already on a plane here.
I can hardly wait, my blood is boiling,
this is the last plea, I’ll be employing.

I think you understand what I'm sayin’,
and I think you know, that I’m not playin’,

cause I’ve told you, over and over and over again my friend
that what I need, immediately, is seduction.

Anais, What's in a name 'one the eve'. Like to see stars and the ISS streak across the sky. Don't know why, but it's always yours I wave to. -Richard

That’s such a fine line, I could never accept it =]
