Falter

If I am there, I am there.
If I am here don’t despair.
I will lose, you will choose.
I will falter.


If I am here, I will go.
If I can’t stand,
I will falter.


Twice, I invite myself to leave.
So gracious, I’ll lift and try to breathe.
If I am gone, I am gone- letting all this run on.
If I am there, I can’t stand to falter.


Gone twice the effort.
The last time I have used, I couldn’t help to falter.
That face, moreover I won’t stay much longer.


If I am here, I won’t really be here.
If you hear me here, its only because these walls remember me.


Burn this crush, this crush not worth to puree’.
Deep violet face, I trace the perfect timing.


So this awkward reply so perfectly worded leaves an uncomfortable last glance.

By chance,

Attached to the answer, can’t help to falter.

If I am here, I am here, just don’t expect my blue –lilac eyes for contact.

If I am here, I am here- past this perfect angled tare.
So if I am gone, I am gone way past this sweat-like tear.
Though if I’ve gone without warning or signal.
It all just means that I’ve assimilated back into the thousands of faces.

Shall I stay, or shall I leave?
Forget it! I’ll skip the whole overture.
Domino-Burn this orange –purple crush.

I think I’ve still got a spine amongst this contagious thrush.
