Just Once

I want to run away.
I can’t cope with one more:
Why did?
Who has?
What made
Where was?
When can?
I need encouragement
I want to hear:
How wonderful!
So soon!
Right now!
It did!
You can!
Why not!
End of dream
Back to work.

Cravings

The more I think about it,
the more I want it,
but I can’t indulge.

The more I deny myself,
the more I taunt myself
that I should indulge.

The more I want it,
the more I empower it,
until I do indulge.

Fine

After all’s been said;
After all’s been done:
I’m sad to say,
it’s over
after all.
Are you surprised
I’m over it
after all?
