Act

Dear,


It pains me to say this but your head's running wild again

Do you not know we still have everything and everyone?


Can you not see?

Can you not hear?


Hear the roars and the chants.


In the drinks you chug down

Through your hair as you pull me through our exhilarating adventures.

Each one beginning as the other ends

Can you wait for me?


It is my fault.

I have you so hooked on the next big thing

You do not consider me and the right now.

The right now that cuddled you till you fell asleep with your thumb wedged firmly between your front teeth.


Have you forgotten? The petals they threw


Darling, turn the lights back on now

They are watching while the credits all roll down


Send in kisses, send in smiles while they applaud


Act.


''We used to have it all,'' you say


But no this is not our final call

I will not leave


No


Do not make me


I will rather crawl out

Than hope for the applause


Please


Act.
