FAIL OR FALL OR FLOURISH

i have nothing to say

without sounding absurd

or contrived, at best

i can tell you this

i would give up sleep

if you could promise me that

early morning bliss

and pressed for time kiss

there is nothing to say

so why not sit in hot silence

contemplate beginnings

and the fatal outcome to ends

i wonder if everything

wonderful feels like this

there's so much to learn

but nothing real being shared

clock is still running

we are still stalling

just come closer

and neglect the rest

if i could only tell you

the secret too distressed
