THIS PHASE

Catch up to this moment

Bounce off our own particulars

Rearrange components

But the omen's the vernacular

I was seeking for atonement

But alone meant I was half of her

Confounded by reunion

And the thought of staring back at her

Been running around so spastic

No elastic as I sought for her

Mind like hardened steel

Yet drastically I lapsed for her

Drunk into a coma

Mad aroma how I gasped for her

Couldn't find my own volition

My indecision had me trapped for her

Every woman that I've met

Got to hear the same old story

At first they found it beautiful

But then it gave them cause to worry

In the realization of the fact

They weren't this person here to lure me

Ignorant of the details

Despite intentions to explore me

So as each new flame met its demise

My reprise met new intentions

Sing the glory of her story

Yet stayed true to her conventions

Wax or wane on all the details

But still no thought to circumvent them

Despite a dire need for love

Sooner or later - I had to mention

Watch them stare at me with madness

Glare of disdain they've tried to hide

Watch as pain and strain consumes them

As I start to step aside

Once I was launched within this purpose

My WORDS were stolen from inside

Wasn't till I finally found them

I found the place might hold her light

Stroked by signs and wonders

All the ways they've sought to soothe me

I've followed their directions

Toward what before would just elude me

Caught into the flow

On the verge of end of days

Truly it was the Mayans

Who defined us

For this phase
