In The Way

If I am in the way
I won't do you good
so I'll move along then
at least I think I should
instead of just standing here
critically misunderstood...
you could make it easier,
step aside if you would.

If I am in the way
I will only do you bad
it's true that both of us
will then become sad,
spare me sheets of notes
of what we could have had...
I'll begin over again
on a fresh, clean pad.

The game of life and love
is a long, hard one to play
the journey off to the unknown
leaves too much for one to say
to point out a destination
to arrive at by end of day...
come to think of it, finishing this poem
you are the one who's in the way.
