Ricochet Words

He writes 

about the man 

he'll never be

the way 

he'll never see

one woman

as enough

it's just too much

he is honest 

and they must 

all be touched

taking 

time 

to love

each one 

before he does 

the thing 

each one 

is so scared of

he runs

he's done 

and hunts for the next 

set of legs

to spread 

the next heart

to light his spark 

it's hard 

he knows he needs 

to choose 

settle 

stay 

and he can 

he will 

just not 

today 

he can't be 

what you need 

or what she sees

along 

her picture perfect path

he just isn't that 

he's laughs

and hot nights 

and yes please

and don't stop

and no 

not forever 

but it's better 

than nothing 

cause something

better will come 

down the way 

and really 

he wants to be here

and he will 

one day 

but right now

he just 

can't 

stay
