No Way
I have no way with you
I have no way without you
I have no way
An immovable object
An unsolvable problem
An unstoppable force
Pi to infinity
Seeking the question to
An impossible answer
I have no way
I am closed tight in
The idea of you
And the unstoppable force of you
Wrapped, cinched and knotted
Gordianly and intractably
Defying even Alexander's blade
I have no way
Tentacles around my mind and heart
Squeeze tighter and tighter
Their tidal pull as inexorable as the moon.
Down I go, waving to the submariner
As I pass the crush point
Force of will unstoppable
I have no way
The momentum of a life with you
Will go on and on and on
In fantasy and imagination
Like Peter and Wendy over the rooftops
Jess and Leslie across their bridge
Or Wilbur and his best friend
I have no way
At least there was you
And what we had in those moments
The hugs and the laughter
Every small touch
Was a universe of possibility
The taste, the smell, the sound
I have no way —
Thanks for reading and sharing my beautiful lie.
