Overdue

You're a Few Years Overdue.
I Spent Them Waiting Here For You.
Now Your Charity's Refused,
I Can Name a Penance For Abuse.

Twenty Four Years Overdue,
What Kind of Role Model Are You?
Very Least Learn Not to Do,
I Think I Might Be Over You.

Do Hope I Won't
Learn to Make
The Same Mistakes,
That You Would
Make Me Aware
That Only Fear,
My Only Hope,
Is Letting Go.

Went On a Limb For You,
Capsized When I Turned Twenty Two.
Did It Burn As Bad For You?
No Bottle Serves to Soothe My Wounds.

Do Hope I Won't
Learn to Make
The Same Mistakes,
That You Would
Make Me Aware
That Only Fear,
My Only Hope,
Is Letting Go.
My Only Hope
Is Letting Go.

You're a Few Years Overdue.
I Spent Them Waiting Here For You.
