last time I try
to act civilized
bonehead the barbarian
once again materialized
I'll bet you saw it
coming down like rain
a bolt from the blue
every night is pain
over a haze of self-hate
good comes to those who wait
my patience has worn thin
I can't bear to let you in
she really takes the cake
there goes your silver spoon
all the angels bellyache
sun's spitting at the moon
I'll bet you heard it
coming over the wire
the tap is bone dry
and the house is on fire
flames licking at your heels
now you know how it feels
here on the losing end
you dare to call me friend
it takes a solid spine
to concede defeat
the pleasure's all mine
the circle is complete
every time I decide
to be accommodating
love comes around
she doesn't mind waiting.

Re: Love Comes Around
good poem. I love your strong ending about love comes around. It doesn't mind waiting. A beautiful thought.
