I’ve been waiting to exhale

I've been waiting to exhale

I’ve been waiting to exhale, love and lust, it will prevail.

I’ve been holding back my wishes. Tell me why? They’re so delicious.

Hunting prey or being hunted, life will offer, just don’t punt it.

Live through dreams of my intentions, let it go, here’s your station.

Tell me twice, don’t trust you once, better yet let’s go dance.

Better yet, make love to me, skip tequila, go to trees.

Take a big ‘ol calming pill, you can do it, what’s the deal?

You can go straight to target, cause we’ll screw it, if we park it.

Be enigma, be your own, but explain yourself to me,

I’m confused and feeling down, so revert myself to trees.

I’ll be there just for you, Mary J will take a sit.

Keep to peace, and keep it true, it’s the same infectious beat.

I’ll be there, also here, I’ll be old and I’ll be new,

Maybe go on a dare, it’s the picture that I drew.

Brewed inside my damaged psyche I display the storm within,

I don’t care if you don’t like it, we ain’t got no matching dreams.

I’m a poet, and a dreamer, but to you it’s a nightmare,

Skipped the title, a redeemer, back to tricks and on a dare.

All I lack is understanding of the one that I am not.

But excuses notwithstanding, we ain’t signing in the dot.

It’s a pleasure, it’s a gas, just clean up, don’t leave a mess.

Poking bothers less and less, please allow me to regress.

Please allow me to ignore, if I’m getting real bored.

Come to think it, nevermind, feels like going at it blind.

Feels like taking every chance, feels like dancing every dance,

Feels like chasing every skirt, like exploring every port.

Feels like standing in the sun, like it’s time for me to run.

Feels like I’m the real one, like I’m never really done.

Not recycling/reusing, my refresh I’m never losing.

Feels like I already said, all I wanted to express,

I already said a lot, so I’m saying even less.
