The Next Thing

[lolitaemotIONal]

God, it seems as though always
we are looking for the next thing:
arriving
to prepare for departure,
coming (gasp, ohgod)
to smoke a cigarette and hurry
out.
What is it I'm wanting and
missing,
feeling
as though we do not pause
and smile at one another in the dark?
I'm tired of rushed introductions, I want
to hold briefly your hand, feel
who and where we and you
are.
Now, here.
Is it so difficult to
be
in the moment, not question
where are you going but ask kindly
who are
you?
and wait for
answers. Perhaps hold each other.
Hold, stay, I want
this moment.

You know, there isn't anything I wouldn't do to impress upon people the importance of the here and the now.
Right on girl. I love your words by the way.

I hope to be seeing more of them in the future.
