Hiatus (poem)

Wish I could’ve put loving on hiatus

Then I could think, but not overthink

As I’m wont to do when in love

But detached I could see unbiased

If we were meant to be

If yes, maybe I could know

What’s stoping us from being together

And work, work, and work

To correct the faults and cracks

That alas, are keeping us apart

Really though, I could use a break

A break from love

‘Cause some days, it eats me

That I haven’t figured out

The art of approaching love

The science of togetherness

And it drives me mad

Why one person can mean so much

That you wait all the time for them

And you pray, even though you don’t believe

For them to come to you
