Pursued

I am aware of the barriers

And I cannot say that I am pleased

With the way things have been

Even though they still have time

To get better in time

Only if my effort is returned

And I can reap what I have to sow

I need to know that being patient

Will eventually get me somewhere

That I am actually waiting for something

And not just spinning my wheels

I want a real reason to kick up my heels

I want a man who really knows how it feels

To be pursuing without being pursued

To be naked without being nude

To be conveyed without being construed

To analyze without getting caught in the mood

To be connected without being glued

To act on impulse without getting sued

I want a man who can open his heart

Who knows that we are never far apart

Who knows that I was with him from the start
