Big Boy Pants


I'd been expecting you
But you never showed up 
Why didnt you come?
Guess you called my bluff.

I spent my time
Hovering, it seems,
Between murky reality
And half lucid dreams.
Guess I was dodging the rough.

I'd always imagined 
That when you got here
Mysteries would unfold;
That my path would be clear.
Guess that was delusional stuff.

Eyes to the people
For a solution
Turned out to be nothing
But noise and confusion.
Then I decided 
To look on the inside
But found I couldn't live off
Hurt feelings and pride.
Guess I wasn't enough.

Severed the cord
But only in word
Time to cash in my actions;
See what my mouth's really worth.
Guess it's time for tough love.
