    A poem that pulls you into its time and space, capturing the excitement of a moment quickly gone by.

    “what’s too good isn’t true”

    it’s 2:14am

    on a Monday morning

    wind is blowing through my hair and

    we’re going 120/hr

    my Uber driver was yours

    now he is mine

    before your hand was in mine

    and then on my thigh

    you think I’m everything I try to be

    I guess I’m playing it well

    say you’re fine with my prudence

    now only time will tell

    we’ll see how truly hard it is for

    you to play the waiting game

    I don’t want to go back to

    playing round one

    over and

    over

    again
