Corey Brown Poet Rhyme

The Wait Is Over

I know I'll always love her.
Another love her as me, I'll always kind of wonder.
She gave her heart to this man - told me I was the greatest.
Never really believed her...
but then she trashed the wait list.
"Here" grabbing me by both wrists
across the cheek a soft kiss.
Hearts beating at a fast pace, merged as one with a slow dance.
"What do you pray for?"
"Chardonnay, Marvin Gaye, and some Romance!"
She laughed out loud, shook her head - stared at the stars, and she said...
I know I'll always love him.
Another love him as me, I'll always kind of wonder.
He gave his heart to this girl - told me I was the greatest.
Never really believed him...
but then he trashed the wait list.

Michael Ellis January 17, 2012 at 9:04 PM Intriguing write...Leaves much to the imagination...I see why its one of the weeks top poems...You tell a genuine story added with greater cultural references...Love the Marvin Gaye reference...The 'wait list' was a great metaphor. Fresh and dramatic..
