Wait For Me
What we were just yesterday
And who we are today
Makes me wonder just a little
To you whom I might say
Thanks for being special.
But sometimes you aren’t so innocuous
For this is what scares me the most
I never know what you want of me
Or if we’re really close.
I hope I am someone disparate
But if I am not, please inform me now
For you, I can live without.
Michael, please all I ask
Is for you to be honest.
I don’t care for what we share
Is something not so chronic.
But if we try to be more tonic
Than this I know might work
If you trust me, as I do you
Than believe me when I lurk
I’ll be waiting for when we’re together
Your new home isn’t too far.
But when I get there,
I’ll pray you’re waiting
Pleasantly not looking for mar
But Michael, you’re the one I wait for
Through the next two years.
Please be there
For me, waiting
I want this to start afresh.
