Timing is Everything


Timing is everything, isn’t it? And it certainly hasn’t been in my favor.
I am not one to fall easily, and yet fallen I have.
I can’t recall having ever been IN love…honestly, truthfully.
Love, yes, of course. I have and do love many. Never in love, though.
Normally so careful and protected. Ensuring no one could reach the true me.
How did you slip past my guarded walls so completely undetected?
Now that you’re there, I can’t imagine any place I’d rather have you be.

Timing is everything and the timing is wrong.
It hurts to know that we could’ve been great.
For meeting you, love, simply came too late.
In my heart, you are, and in yours I don’t belong.

That’s enough for now. Just to put it out into the universe.
Somewhere other than my head.
Knowing that someone else may read it and relate.
Timing is everything and I am not a fan of fate.

Walking a fine line between genius and insanity. My words are raw, sometimes visceral, and vulgar.  I write to settle my thoughts.  I have triggers that extract emotional immaturity, deep- rooted fears, anger, insecurity, vulnerability, yet I heal with every stroke of the pen.  I might be that monster.  I sometimes scare myself.  Please keep this in mind as you read.  I do not wish to provoke you, though stories need to be told. *not all posts are in real time
