I sit staring beneath your gaze,

wondering 'what if?'.

instead of 'not if.',

both eloquent of their nature,

postponements of the postponed,

skewed on the plane below,

questions formed from those versed in,

the answers held in truth,

but unlocked to those in a sense,

a common sense that routes forth,

thought and action,

symbiotic in their interactions,

of circular motion,

providing surfaces of grainy confirmation,

for a slacker,

from the back row.

Great lines!

Your ending made me think of the following quote I have read:
"In terms of their outlook on the future, slackers regard tomorrow with a studied cynicism or . . . don't even conceive of one" Julie Caniglia.

You did a good job conceiving this write. *wink*

Enjoyed!
