Holly Knoles Poet Rhyme

Uncertain Contradictions

He tells me he wants me in his life

And he tells me he wants me to be his wife

He tells me of a house that I didn’t know exist

And he tells me of something he’s been searching for --- a wish

He tells me rarely that he loves me

He tells me he lives by the Atlantic Sea

He wants to sing again, he says

But seems so lost in his own ways

He tells me all the things I want to hear

He tells me he can banish my one fear

He’s completely across the United States

But yet he tells me he expects me to wait

He can’t make up his mind on what he wants to do

Everything in New Jersey to him also is new

His kisses when he gives them melts my heart

He tells me he doesn’t want us to be apart

He makes these plans that I just don’t see

He’s initiated before about being on one knee

But I feel like he avoids me after all that he tells

I feel like I’m drowning in thousands of wells

He wants me to leave my family and move on

But I feel like he doesn’t think I can be strong

He’s been there before to kiss away my tears

I can see him in all directions of all mirrors

Silently sitting my tears constantly fall

But for him I hold my head up and stand tall

Any girl would be proud she’s in his life

Any girl would be happy to call her his wife

But questions float through everyday

But at the rate we’re going, there’s no way

What I’d sacrifice to be in his arms

My love for him couldn’t fill up a million farms

But will he come through and claim me as his own?

Or is he just borrowing me because he’s alone?
