Ryan McNicholas - For You

Of course I do
It again, just another
Mess up in the journal
Of my life, diving into
Life; s never ending
Black hole of trying
To find the “one.”

But the faster I fall
The farther the love
Is to reach, I close
My eyes and wave my
Arms, but wiff many
Times. The harder I try
The further you distance
Yourself.

Told to wait and
And wait I will,
Till the next sunrise
Or last sunset, I will
Be here, still free
Falling at will to
Hold you in my arms.

My history haunts me
Like the ghost of
Christmas Past,
I scratch at the
Walls to rewrite
It, but no one can
Stop the pen from
Writing.

I must be truthful
And truth be told
It’s hard,
Building my ego
As high as the
Sears Tower,
But I’m still
Left a broken Superman.

It’s you and
You alone who will
Let me be me, laugh
When no one else does,
Smile when I’m sad and,
Kiss me because you can.

Ryan McNicholas
