BAD LEAP

Can’t wait for it to be over

Then it is

What a relief

A sigh satisfaction reward

Bookend with a frappe

Used to be a cigarette

Kick back it was a long haul

Now it seems the whole affair

Just didn’t happen

No sweat pushing through

Keeping at it

A memory vanished

How easy life becomes

A series of mile posts

Now I’m here

That one is past then another

Some move by slowly

Others a blur

Then the sneaky feeling

Where was the rest of that time

Where did it go

Was there something to be missed

While holding my breath

I’m where I wanted to be

At the end of that unpleasantness

Got what I wanted

But it’s over

I could have done so many

I’m banging on the door

To the past now

Let me in let me in

I need to make up for all that

I don’t want to be older

Don’t want to be looking back

What in the world have I done

Let me in
