Overdue

by

I am long overdue

for something to make it right

for someone who takes my breath away

for a change in pace

something's missing and I'm

searching around frantically for

this thing or person

that may make my day better

and my smile brighter

I am overdue

and the fines are taxing my heart

and soul

which have both broken into

tiny shards that are lying about

my feet

It only gets harder the longer you go

and I'm so young

yet feel so old
maybe some day the fines will

be paid and I will

no longer feel this way

NEXT?
