Tease
Dangled
Before my eyes
Then put away
Maybe for later
For when
I do not know
I’m sure there’s a reason
First you showed me it all
Only to snatch it away
Faster than
The blink of an eye
Something to keep my hope alive
Only to have it die
Later that day
But I can’t take much more
Of these teases
I have a limit
And my dreams
Seem to be slipping away
Just beyond my reach
I’m scared to let go
Before my eyes
Then put away
Maybe for later
For when
I do not know
I’m sure there’s a reason
First you showed me it all
Only to snatch it away
Faster than
The blink of an eye
Something to keep my hope alive
Only to have it die
Later that day
But I can’t take much more
Of these teases
I have a limit
And my dreams
Seem to be slipping away
Just beyond my reach
I’m scared to let go

Hang in there. It's so hard when you've almost got it, but then it slips (or is snatched) from your grasp...but you have to keep trying.
((hugs))
